I totally just spent an hour gathering pictures and information on any and every non-white opera soprano I could find because I got tired of Renee Fleming and assorted thin, white, blondes being the poster children of opera. Not that they aren't talented or beautiful, BUT OPERA IS MORE THAN THEM.
LIKE HOLY SHIT JESSYE NORMAN. JESSYE NORMAN IS A GODDESS INCARNATE.
HELLO, SUMI JO. I SEE YOU GIRL. THAT VOICE? FLAWLESS.
KRISTIN LEWIS. PLEASE SEND HELP, I AM DEAD.
Just, I will not have this "opera is all white people" bullshit. I will shut that shit down. ALWAYS.
Also, everything in this video.
