The last African American doll that was created by American Girl was in 2011 and her name was Cecile. Cecile was the companion of Marie-Grace and their story was based in the 1850's in New Orleans. Unfortunately, with the launch of the new BeForever line in the summer of 2014, both characters were discontinued.
