Imagine being 13 years, a ballerina with hopes and dreams of being a principal dancer but never really thought it would happen.

CIRCA 2015...A SALUTE Misty-the first black woman ballerina was just named principle dancer at the American Ballet Theatre.  The FIRST BLACK WOMAN in the company's 75 year history.  But it hasn't been overnight, a rarity for a ballet promotion.

QUOTE..."It's been 14 years of extremely hard work.  I'm just so extremely honored to be African American and to be in this position.

STAY TUNED...

Ascension to the very top ranks will inspire...etc.

Many young dancers of color...etc.

Breaking the barrier...etc.

Historic impact...etc.

Dreams do come TRUE...etc
