About this product

Product Information

For decades the prominent image of a ballet dancer has been a white body with pale clothing. It took 75 years for American Ballet Theatre to have its first African American female principal dancer, Misty Copeland. When TaKiyah Wallace-McMillian went to enrol her three-year-old daughter into her first ballet class, she immediately saw this lack of diversity and representation-even on her local dance studio's website. Within weeks TaKiyah, a freelance photographer, began shooting a project she called Brown Girls Do Ballet, which eventually became an Instagram hit and a non-profit organization that provides resources, mentorship, inspiration, and encouragement to young dancers of colour worldwide.For her first book, The Color of Dance , TaKiyah travelled around the United States seeking out dancers of African, Asian, East Indian, Hispanic, and Native American ancestry. With these more than 190 breath-taking images of colourful ballerinas of all ages and levels, both amateur and professional, TaKiyah gives a voice to dancers who have been underrepresented for too long.With dozens of quotes throughout from ballerinas themselves, The Color of Dance redefines what this classically Eurocentric art form has looked like for centuries and will inspire dancers-and all of us-to pursue our dreams no matter what barriers are put in front of us.

Reviews
"TaKiyah Wallace-McMillian has lovingly centered young dancers of color as never before. This long-overdue tribute to humanity's beauty and diversity as seen through ballet's lens is both necessary and breathtaking. Brava!"-- Nikki Hefko, Director, New Orleans School of Ballet, "The Color of Dance illuminates the beauty and promise that Black and brown girls bring to the field of ballet. With rich, joyful, and poetic imagery, TaKiyah Wallace-McMillian captures the timeless nature of the phrase 'dare to dream.'"-- Alicia Graf Mack, Dean and Director, Juilliard Dance, The Color of Dance illuminates the beauty and promise that Black and brown girls bring to the field of ballet.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
