Ke noʻonoʻo ʻoe i nā kāmaʻa ballet, hiki paha i ka noʻonoʻo ke kala ʻulaʻula. Akā, ʻaʻole i kūlike nā kala ʻulaʻula peachy o ka hapa nui o nā kāmaʻa ballet pointe me kahi ākea o nā ʻili ʻili. Ke ho'āʻo nei ʻo Briana Bell, he hula i ke ola a me ke kula kiʻekiʻe hou, e hoʻololi i kēlā.

Ma Iune 7, ua lawe ʻo Bell i Twitter e koi ana i ka poʻe e kau inoa i kahi palapala noi e kāhea ana i nā hui lole huluhulu e hāʻawi i nā lole komo ʻili ʻili hou no nā mea hulahula BIPOC - kikoʻī, nā kāmaʻa pointe me nā aka like ʻole. Ma kāna tweet, ua haʻi ʻo Bell i nā mea hula ʻeleʻele e "pancake" i ko lākou mau kāmaʻa pointe me ke kumu e hoʻohālikelike i ke kala o ko lākou ʻili. ʻO kā lākou mau keʻokeʻo keʻokeʻo, ua hoʻohui ʻo ia, mai lawe i ka ukana like.

No Bell, ʻoi aku ka pilikia ma mua o ka pilikia o ka pena mau ʻana i kou mau kāmaʻa pointe i kahi kala ʻē aʻe, i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia ma kāna pae Twitter. "Ua kipaku mau ʻia nā ballerinas ʻeleʻele i waho o ka honua maʻamau a me nā loina maʻamau no ka mea ʻaʻole like ko mākou kino i ko lākou a he ala ʻē aʻe kēia e hōʻoluʻolu ai iā mākou," kākau ʻo ia. "Hele hou aku kēia ma mua o nā kāmaʻa. ʻO ka prejudice a me ka hoʻokalakiko i loko o ke kaiāulu hulahula e passive i kaʻu ʻike akā nui loa ma laila. ʻAʻole nui ka noi ʻana i nā kāmaʻa e kūlike me ko mākou ʻili, no laila e ʻoluʻolu e lawe i kekona kekona e kau inoa i kēia palapala noi." (Pili: ʻO ka ʻoihana ʻumeʻume i kēia manawa ʻoi aku ka pale o ka ʻili – i hui mau ʻia ma mua o ka manawa)

ʻOiaʻiʻo, kekahi mau hui lole hula hana e hana i nā kāmaʻa pointe ʻokoʻa o ka ʻili, me Gaynor Minden a me Freed o Ladana. Ua hāʻawi aku ka hui hope i nā kāmaʻa ballet pointe iā Tene Ward, he mea hula me ka National Ballet of Canada, i hoʻopiha ʻia me ka manaʻo i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā kāmaʻa.

"Ke kaumaha nei ka manaʻo akā ua hoʻopōmaikaʻi ʻia i ka hopena hope loa," i kākau ai ʻo Ward ma ka ʻaoʻao o kahi wikiō Instagram e hoʻomaka ana i kāna mau kāmaʻa pointe hou, i kūpono loa i kona ʻili ʻeleʻele. "Mahalo e @nationalballet a me @freedoflondon. ʻO kēia kahi pae o ka ʻae a me ka noho ʻana aʻu i ʻike mua ʻole ai i ka honua ballet."

No ka hapanui, akā naʻe, nā koho no nā kāmaʻa pointe ʻokoʻa kala o ka ʻili e kaupalena ʻia. ʻO ka palapala noi a Bell i haʻi aku ai, i hana mua ʻia e Megan Watson o Penn Hills, Pennsylvania, i hana mua ʻia i ʻelua mau makahiki i hala, e kāhea ana i ka hui hula hula, ʻo Capezio - kekahi o nā mea hoʻolako nui a kaulana loa i nā kāmaʻa ballet pointe - e "hoʻomaka i ka hana ʻana i nā kāmaʻa pointe. hana ʻia no nā mea ʻoi aku ka ʻili keʻokeʻo a ʻeleʻele paha."

ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, ʻo ka BIPOC ballerinas e paʻi ana i ko lākou kāmaʻa no nā makahiki, a ua mamao ʻo Bell mai ka hula mua e kamaʻilio e pili ana i ia. ʻO Misty Copeland, ka mea hulahula poʻokela ʻeleʻele i ka American Ballet Theatre, i mea leo e pili ana i ka nele o nā ʻano like ʻole i nā kāmaʻa pointe.

"He nui nā ʻōlelo kumu i hoʻouna ʻia i ka poʻe kala mai ka manawa i hana ʻia ai ka ballet," i ʻōlelo ai ʻo ia. I kēia lā i 2019. "Ke kūʻai ʻoe i nā kāmaʻa pointe a i ʻole nā ​​kāmaʻa ballet, a ua kapa ʻia ke kala he ʻulaʻula ʻEulopa, manaʻo wau he mea nui ia i ka poʻe ʻōpio - ʻaʻole ʻoe i kūpono, ʻaʻole ʻoe, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ia. i ʻōlelo ʻia."

I kēia manawa, ua hōʻiliʻili ka palapala noi a Bell ma luna o 319,000 mau pūlima. Mahalo iā ia - a me Silva, Copeland, a me nā mea hula ʻē aʻe o ka waihoʻoluʻu i ʻōlelo e hoʻonui i kēia kamaʻilio ʻana i nā makahiki - ua hoʻoponopono ʻia kēia pilikia lōʻihi. Ua hoʻopuka hou ʻo CEO ʻo Capezio, ʻo Michael Terlizzi i kahi ʻōlelo ma ka inoa o ka hui lole hula, nona nā hemahema o ka brand.

"Ma ke ʻano he ʻohana nona ka ʻohana, ʻo kā mākou waiwai nui ke ahonui, ke komo ʻana, a me ke aloha no nā mea āpau, a ua kūpaʻa mākou i kahi honua hulahula me ke kūlike ʻole a me ka hoʻokae ʻole," e heluhelu ana i ka ʻōlelo. "'Oiai mākou e hāʻawi aku i nāʻaʻahu ballet pahee, lole wāwae, a me nā lole o ke kino i nāʻano likeʻole a me nā kala, kā mākou mākeke nui loa i nā kāmaʻa pointe, he poni maʻamau."

"Ua lohe mākou i ka ʻōlelo a kā mākou hui hula kūpaʻa e makemake ana i nā kāmaʻa pointe e hōʻike ana i ke kala o ko lākou ʻili," hoʻomau ka ʻōlelo, me ka hoʻohui ʻana e loaʻa nā ʻano kāmaʻa pointe ʻelua kaulana loa o Capezio i nā ʻano like ʻole e hoʻomaka i ka hāʻule. o 2020.
