Not racist.

Chances are the black one doesn't sell as well, so they marked it down to encourage purchase.

the list price of the black barbie being less than that of the white barbie isn't racist.

as others have said, supply and demand provides the basis for prices, not racism or personal beliefs.
 
Its kind of subconsciously racist. We know in america people prefer lighter skin, So its the fact that most little girls will chose the light one over the dark one. Im pretty sure people still buying the higher priced barbie.
