so, the american girl company, in their attempt to take their schtick to the streets and capitalize on the 'jenny from the block' theme that j.lo has bestowed upon the world, ends up making a racist-toned faux pas and pissing off an entire chicago neighborhood. awesome. gotta love the suggestion: white flight for the urban minority masses. screw a sense of community, you'll get yo ass shot out there. i suppose american girl thought they were being gracious, letting their hispanic character move to the 'burbs? uh...not so much.
