I'm assuming you are referring to Barbie's sister Stacie's friend Janet from the 1990s. She's the only doll that fits your description.
Or do you have one the of Mattel African-American Sunshine Family dolls from the 1970s? They aren't considered Barbie dolls.
Mattel introduced an African-American Barbie in 1980, but only the coloring--not the doll's features--was modified.

A. Francie - She appeared in 1967 as Barbie's "mod" cousin. This doll is very rare. B. Her long-time African-American friend is Christie, who was first sold in 1968. C. The first African-American Barbie was introduced in 1980. She's just called Black Barbie. She wore a bubblecut/Afro and a red gown. Now they have a black barbie doll group and they are Trichelle, Sara and Grace. There was a black version of Barbie's cousin Francie in 1967. Barbie's first African-American friend was Christie, first sold in 1968. The first Black Barbie (as opposed to a different name) was sold in 1980.

They're 12 to 13 inches long.
There is no American Girl Barbie. Or are you asking about the 1965 bend leg Barbie, who is often referred to as American Girl? I don't know about her arms, but her legs are similar to the 1971 Malibu Barbie's, and some collectors have bleached the Malibu Barbie legs to put on the bend leg doll.

No. Barbie is a fashion doll manufactured by the American toy-company Mattel, Inc. and launched in March 1959. American businesswoman Ruth Handler is credited with the creation of the doll using a German doll called Bild Lilli as her inspiration.
I did some searching and found very little. There where some Barbie clothes with exotic type Barbie doll but it seems like the market is small.
