This November, the Dance Theatre of Harlem celebrates Scott's legacy on civil rights. Her outward criticism of racism in America has brought light to various social injustices. Thus, it is only pertinent that a multi-ethnic dance company pays tribute to her works and ensures that her contributions to art, culture, and society are never forgotten.

The Dance Theatre of Harlem is an internationally touring dance company composed of 18 immensely talented members. The group, founded by Arthur Mitchell in 1969, performs with a dynamic repertoire that includes neoclassical compositions and contemporary music. The company uses the language of ballet to promote inclusivity and empowerment. Moreover, the Dance Theatre of Harlem practices Mitchell’s belief that “ballet belongs to everyone.”
