Prima ballerina India Bradley has become the first Black soloist for the New York City Ballet. With Misty Copeland's recent retirement, Bradley’s ascension is an important milestone for diversity in premier ballet casting. 

Speaking with Essence Girls United on her casting as also the first Black Dewdrop in a performance of George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker, Bradley shared, “Many African-American women went through this company at different times and were not given the opportunity. I can tell you it had 50 percent to do with the fact that they were Black.” ■
