Bill, it’s even worse than you describe. Not only can the (apparently fragile) black psyche be attacked by Walmart’s pricing of a doll, but the white psyche too. One could argue—were he irredeemably statist and weak-minded—that Walmart, by pricing black Barbies at a lower price point than white Barbies, is actually discriminating against people who want to buy a white Barbie!
Walmart—keeping the black man and the white man down, with the same action.
