Repost from @embracingblackculture using @RepostRegramApp - A stunning photo with a much deeper meaning. Since Black Ballerinas are not widely sought after in the Ballet industry, no one makes Ballet shoes in their shade. So, like you see here, their shoes must be colored to match their skin tone. It's unfortunate, and it's the very reason why representation is so important.
