What is a "golliwog"?
A golliwog is a type of black rag doll, typically characterized by exaggerated features such as large eyes, a wide mouth, and bright clothing. The doll originated in the late 19th century and became popular in Western countries, often appearing in children's books and advertisements. Over time, the golliwog doll has become controversial due to its racist and stereotypical portrayal of Black people. Today, it is generally considered offensive and inappropriate. As such, golliwogs are rarely made or sold, and discussions around them emphasize the need for respectful representation in toys and media.
