Some residents of Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood aren’t happy that the American Girl book which introduces Marisol Luna to the $84-doll-buying public has Marisol moving to the suburbs. In the book, Marisol says her mother told her that Pilsen “was no place for me to grow up. It was dangerous, and there was no place for me to play.” The vice president of Pilsen’s Mexican Fine Arts Center Museum says that’s ridiculous and insulting. Story in the Sun-Times.
