Nina loved ballet, but her classmates and favorite teacher discouraged her because they didn't think ballet was for girls like her. To make matters worse, her classmates constantly made insensitive comments about her race and appearance. But Nina refused to let their mistreatment bring her down. She joined the ballet class anyway and pursued her passion, despite being told she didn't belong.
When given the opportunity to give a speech at school, Nina seized the moment to stand up for herself and all those who felt different or out of place. She reminded everyone that no matter their race or background, they were all created equally and beautifully by God.
