BLACK HISTORY & DANCE HISTORY FACT: THE NUTCRACKER BALLET IS BASED ON THE VERSION OF THE TALE WRITTEN BY FRENCH AUTHOR OF AFRICAN & HATIAN DESCENT-- ALEXANDER DUMAS. HE IS ALSO THE AUTHOR OF THE THREE MUSKETEERS.
DESPITE DISCRIMINATION AGAINST BLACK PEOPLE, DUMAS WAS ABLE TO RISE ABOVE RACISM & ACHIEVE GREAT SUCCESS. DUMAS REVISED THE ORIGINAL NUTCRACKER, WRITTEN BY RUSSIAN AUTHOR ET HOFFMAN, AND MADE IT MORE APPROPRIATE FOR CHILDREN.
DUE TO INADEQUATE TEACHING OF BLACK HISTORY & ANEMIC DIVERSITY IN CURRICULUMS IN SCHOOLS-- MOST PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE THE BELOVED CLASSICAL BALLET IS BASED ON A BOOK BY A BLACK MAN WHOSE GRANDMOTHER WAS AN ENSLAVED AFRICAN IN HAITI.
WHAT AN AMAZING ACCOMPLISHMENT. EVERYONE SHOULD KNOW ALEXANDER DUMAS. HIS SON WAS ALSO A FAMOUS BLACK, FRENCH AUTHOR.
Masks are required at our studio. Many thanks for helping to keep our community safe.
