☆ Misty Copeland reflects on the ‘generational trauma’ felt by Black ballet dancers
  + stars: | 2024-03-24 | by ( Matt Marshall | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
And that wasn’t always the case.”There were also instances of discrimination that could have easily turned Copeland away from dance all together. “There were times that I was not cast in certain roles because I would stand out too much and kind of ruin the aesthetic, especially if it was a performance that was being filmed,” Copeland told Wallace. “I think about this kind of generational trauma for Black dancers that comes with that role,” she said. And I feel that that’s what I’ve done with a lot of the roles I’ve taken on, but especially Swan Lake,” Copeland told Wallace. Misty Copeland and James Whiteside perform in "Swan Lake" at Lincoln Center in New York, June 24, 2015.

☆ Misty Copeland's Dedication to Inclusion Spans Many Projects — and Her Push for New Dance Emojis

Copeland spoke with The Associated Press about her new focus, fighting for more inclusive emojis, and staying in shape. She wants to push the boundaries and it didn’t matter what question I asked her, she was going to push me (laughs) in every way. That to me is like the grand scheme theme is that art saves lives, and dance and ballet can be inclusive. AP: Why did you start a petition to create new emojis related to dance that are more inclusive? All of these things that I think are such an incredible evolution of where I’ve come from as an artist and as a Black artist.
