- Misty Copeland - the first Black woman to be promoted to principal dancer at American Ballet Theatre - remembers how her mom’s rough upbringing carried into adulthood, marred by abuse and instability. The trailblazing ballerina shares poignant memories of escaping her mom’s abusers in the middle of the night, frequently couch surfing or sleeping on floors and trying to save a drive-by victim on her front porch. Plus, Misty explains how she got acquainted with her father, Doug Copeland, and why it was nothing like long-lost reunions portrayed in Lifetime movies.
