The Doll Test
By Carla McCarty
2
In the 1940s, psychologists Kenneth and Mamie Clark conducted a famous study with young African American children using two dolls—one Black and one white. The children were asked a series of questions about the dolls, such as which one was “nice” or “pretty.”
This simple experiment revealed powerful insights about how society and racism can shape self-image and identity at an early age.
It has been repeated several times
