Wilma Mankiller was the first-ever female Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation and a fierce advocate for Native American, women’s, and children’s rights. In 1998, she was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Now, she is the newest doll in the Barbie Inspiring Women series. Just like the iconic photograph of Wilma, the doll is carrying a basket and wearing a richly pigmented dress with striping to represent the four compass directions.
