In commemoration of Alpha Kappa Alpha's 100 years of sisterhood and service, the Sorority unveiled the AKA Centennial Barbie Doll during its international convention in Washington, DC.
Produced and marketed in partnership with Mattel, this represents the first Barbie in Mattel's franchise to honor a sorority on a milestone celebration
Michelle Obama says she'll be proud to be an honorary member of Alpha Kappa Alpha, the black sorority holding its centennial celebrations in DC this week.
"Because of her respect for each of the historically black sororities and fraternities, her membership is non-exclusive," says Katie McCormick Lelyveld, Michelle Obama's spokeswoman but she wants to make sure people know that accepting AKA's invitation doesn't mean she'd rule out others. "She looks forward to working with all of them to help bring change to their communities."
