      It’s not a victim card when people need advocates… I read something from the Royal ballet director that said he wasn’t willing to break up a line of white in Swan lake… It’s really ridiculous and ballet needs more beautiful dancers if color regardless if the current dancers don’t say anything… Ballets also need to be more culturally sensitive in general and the San Francisco ballet’s Nutcracker proves this can be seamless… so happy for all these beautiful people adding to the beauty of ballet… ❤

      Well everyone has the right to evaluate anyone’s technique. As someone who was a professional dancer and teacher...and an American not Cuban which shouldn’t mean anything? she is simply not ready for this rank as principal. It is a technical thing. Not a personal thing. I do however think it’s sad that people of color are so rarely given their due reward for hard work in the ballet world...then Misty gets this rank clearly for other reasons besides her technique. There’s a real lack of inclusion for those who can truly handle something like a principal rank.

      @Laura Streeter you really have a problem with this woman. I’ve been reading and you’re under almost every comment going off about something. Heres a hard truth, you’re just being a flat out hater! You think she’s terrible but guess what she’s doing what you will never be able to do and if you have done it, you won’t do it again. She’s living her dream while you are just being a flat out hater on UA-cam. Her technique is better than yours, she’s lighter than you, she’s a better dancer than you, and more successful than you, she has inspired many black girls which is more than you’ve inspired, she doesn’t have to sit on UA-cam stalking comments about you because 1. You will never be as good as her and 2. Your level of talent is nonexistent compared to hers. Do better!

      I think she should focus mainly on contemporary ballet, she is far better at it... Classical ballet is just not for her... Everybody are differents and have different natural talents. Surely she is talented but not in CLASSICAL BALLET. it's just not for her. Hope that one day she humbly, finally realised that fact before she retires...
