TODAY: Misty Copeland (@mistyonpointe). She was the first Black principal ballerina for @ABTBallet. We talk about the pressure of being first, the injury that nearly ended her career, and her mentor, pioneering Black ballerina Raven Wilkinson.

Ballerina @mistyonpointe has made history throughout her career — but she says learning about and meeting pioneering Black dancer Raven Wilkinson gave her a "different sense of belonging and purpose" on stage.
