[LM_NET] TAR: Best mag for African-American tweens

[Susan Grigsby <susan.grigsby@GMAIL.COM>]

This is sort-of off topic because it is a personal request. My daughter (I
adopted her when she was 10) is African-American wants a "fashion magazine"
subscription for christmas. She loves fashion, make-up, and style but she's
a very impressionable, young-for-her-age tween and Teen Vogue is a little
too over-the-top while Justine and Girls Life seem to be predominately
caucasian/anglo (IMHO). Could anyone suggest a magazine for a girl like her
that promotes strong, positive portrayal of African-American girls?
