As we’ve been spending more time at home, I’ve been motivated now more than ever to make an investment into my space a little at a time. Home decor and interior design are part of my self-care. Walking into a beautifully designed space with quality furniture and good energy makes me feel at ease, and helps motivate me to be my best and most productive self. Is it just me?!

<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-28739 size-large" src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/download-beyonce-superpower-black-and-white-wallpaper-6706-1024x576.jpg" alt="Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women" width="640" height="360" />Beyoncé has finally announced the recipients of her Formation Scholarships.</p>
This April, Beyoncé announced a scholarship for female scholars to celebrate the one-year anniversary of her hit album, "Lemonade." According to <a href="http://www.vibe.com/2017/04/michelle-obama-praises-beyonce-for-scholars-program/" target="_blank">Vibe.com</a>, applicants were required to maintain a 3.5 GPA and write a short essay on how the album inspired their educational goals, as well as a portfolio of their work. Each recipient receives $25,000 for their educational or artistic pursuits. According to <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/formation-scholars" target="_blank">Beyonce's website</a>, she hopes with her scholarship to “encourage and support young women who are unafraid to think outside the box and are bold, creative, conscious and confident.”
<p style="text-align: justify;">Here is some more on the four lucky recipients:</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Bria Paige, 19, Spelman College:</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/DCXcTPHVwAE2b41-e1498339616783.jpg"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-28702 size-full" src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/DCXcTPHVwAE2b41-e1498339616783.jpg" alt="Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women" width="400" height="416" /></a></p>

<h6 style="text-align: center;">Image: <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/announcing-formation-scholars/" target="_blank">The Formation Scholars Award</a></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">According to an interview with <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/students-just-received-scholarship-beyonce/" target="_blank">PBS</a>, Paige’s goal is to research “Black women and their political spaces.” Paige said that Beyonce’s “album really celebrated Black womanhood. And not only the joy and triumphs of Black womanhood, but also the perils, the hard times.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Paige hopes to become a professor one day and she plans to get her PhD in English. She is passionate about womens and gender studies, and she will incorporate the two topics in her teaching. "Being a Formation Scholar just means to me being bold, unafraid and unapologetic in my work and in my scholarship," Paige expressed. "Let’s just get in formation to really shake up this world and make our presence known.”</p>

<h3 style="text-align: left;"><strong>Sadiya Ramos, 19, Berklee College of Music:</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/sadiyaramos_tall.jpg"><img class="alignnone wp-image-28709 " src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/sadiyaramos_tall.jpg" alt="Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women" width="265" height="398" /></a></p>

<h5 style="text-align: center;">Image: <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/announcing-formation-scholars/" target="_blank">The Formation Scholars Award</a></h5>
During an interview with <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/students-just-received-scholarship-beyonce/" target="_blank">PBS</a> Ramos spoke of dance, “I fell in love with the ability to communicate through [the] body. The body has no limits and neither does creativity.”
<p style="text-align: justify;">Growing up Ramos felt like she was rejected from certain roles because she was Black. She stated, [her] “greatest challenge is being a woman of color in ballet.” She admitted that more and more Black women are joining ballet, but it is not the norm. Ramos believes that “people aren’t exactly open to this change.”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">"As a woman of color, people have different perceptions of me and how I will act and how I will dance," she explained. "My parents instilled in me the importance of not paying attention to the outside noise because it truly didn’t matter. It was just about dance.”</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Maya Rogers, 36, Howard University:</strong></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: center;"><img class="alignnone wp-image-28710" src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/maya_rogers_tall-500x749.jpg" alt="Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women" width="351" height="526" /></h3>
<h6 style="text-align: center;">Image: <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/announcing-formation-scholars/" target="_blank">The Formation Scholars Award</a></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Maya is the oldest recipient to receive a scholarship, demonstrating that Beyonce considered all ages and backgrounds. According to her interview with <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/students-just-received-scholarship-beyonce/" target="_blank">PBS</a>, music has always been a part of her life. She played the violin at age four and the piano at age five. She couldn’t make a career out of music, but she never stopped practicing her passions.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Her experience with teaching led her to music therapy and the healing arts. Maya has said that her scholarship has helped to “ease the burden of school’s expenses,” and will allow her to become the first person to earn a certificate in music therapy from Howard University.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“My focus is really these days around how music impacts human beings, how the human voice is something that we can use to be empowered by how it connects us to one another when we sing together. Really wonderful things happen: we bond together socially, our bodies actually begin to sync up, our heart beats sync up, we breathe together,” Rogers said.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">She also wants to help people who have disabilities and can benefit from music therapy. “Witnessing how music really impacts their ability to communicate better, their self confidence, their general enjoyment for life. To me, those are the greatest triumphs,” she said.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Avery Youngblood, 23, Parsons School of Design:</strong></h3>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-28701 size-full" src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Screen-Shot-2017-06-27-at-6.35.40-PM.png" alt="Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women" width="326" height="507" /></p>

<h6 style="text-align: center;">Image: <a href="http://www.beyonce.com/announcing-formation-scholars/" target="_blank">The Formation Scholars Award</a></h6>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Avery Youngblood revealed in her interview with <a href="http://www.pbs.org/newshour/updates/students-just-received-scholarship-beyonce/" target="_blank">PBS</a> that she believes her identity as a Black women shaped who she is and her scholarship. She wrote her undergraduate thesis on minority dialect and African American Vernacular English at Stanford University.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now at Parsons School Of Design, Youngblood wants to relay political messages on race, ethnicity and linguistics. Youngblood has been focusing on perception, and most of all how she is perceived because of her race and gender. She also looks at how other people are perceived because of their identities and how the perception affects the opportunities available to them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“Your greatest strength is your identity, your roots,” Youngblood said. Being a young Black female, Youngblood believes she has a unique perspective in the world of design and it allows her to cater to more than one audience.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">“I think as you become older, you become more conscious of what’s around you: how everything is geared towards a certain audience or geared towards a certain demographic and you realize you’re not that demographic,” she said. “What design has allowed me to do is actually look at every single thing that I walk past — especially in New York, where you have so many advertisements — and you can tell what speaks to you and what doesn’t speak to you. I hope to achieve designs that speak to all different types of bodies.”</p>

Beyoncé Invests In The Future Of Women

Despite being one of the greatest ballerinas in the world, sometimes even Misty Copeland has an off day or rather just a human day. Earlier this month the <a href="https://hellogiggles.com/news/misty-copeland-principal/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">first black female principal</a> dancer at the American Ballet Theater was performing in <em>Swan Lake </em>and instead of completing 32 fouettés (turns) at the end of the piece, she did 12 instead and then improvised the rest. Well, critics on the internet went crazy spewing hate about her terrible performance and called Copeland an embarrassment to the ABT.

But you know what, you don't mess with Copeland. She clapped back, but in the classiest of ways. On March 28th she responded to a Tweet calling her "the worst."

<a id="Q1X7_NkqSRdVC825EKoxeg" class="gie-single" style="color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;" href="http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/458379987" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Embed from Getty Images</a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'Q1X7_NkqSRdVC825EKoxeg',sig:'_AeRVlV9WsgxSz4Hx6GzfA2JLSQ3Boeqkg3bmj7Aor4=',w:'594px',h:'395px',items:'458379987',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});</script><script src='//embed-cdn.gettyimages.com/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async></script>

Copeland wrote:
<blockquote>"I will always reiterate that I am by no means the best in ballet. I understand my position and what I represent. I know that I’m in a very unique position and have been given a rare platform. All I’ve ever wanted is to bring ballet to more people and to help to diversify it.
I’ve worked extremely hard to be where I am and I believe that what I bring to the table is authentic artistry with a unique point of view through my life experiences, and my unusual path and upbringing.

Also as a black woman and black ballerina. I would love to see all of the incredible deserving black dancers get the opportunities that I have.I will forever be humbled and extremely grateful for the fact that I get to do what I love for a living, that I get to do all of the incredible roles that I do, in particular Swan Queen.

&nbsp;</blockquote>
Copeland has always been vocal about the lack of diversity in the ballet world and that this puts a lot of pressure on her graceful shoulders. She continued in her comment:
<blockquote>There are so many ballerinas that never get to experience dancing the most iconic and demanding role in a ballerinas repertoire. I have so so so much respect for what I do and for the ballerinas I stand on the shoulders of. I’m in awe every day that I am a part of such an incredible art form that has changed and enriched my life in so many ways and that I get to do it all with ABT."

<a id="iowLlesOROVTOcVwgnqx5g" class="gie-single" style="color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;" href="http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/496449406" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Embed from Getty Images</a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'iowLlesOROVTOcVwgnqx5g',sig:'QUIhDvrHPmoz1oXJIdeViomWaeVNE1vNVtIbVpRc4Ok=',w:'594px',h:'395px',items:'496449406',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});</script><script src='//embed-cdn.gettyimages.com/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async></script>

I don’t decide who’s promoted or what roles I dance. I never envisioned myself as the Swan Queen after being in the company for almost 15 years before i was given the opportunity. I have such deep and conflicting feelings connected to Swan Lake. As a black woman and as a ballerina given the chance to take on this role. I often question if I deserve to perform this role. My conclusion, I do. Some of the most memorable Swan Queens in history have brought so much more to this role without having to present the incredible and evolved technique of today by doing insane tricks that bring some to see Swan Lake. For the anticipated 32 fouettés. But it is so much more than that.</blockquote>
As for why she decided to respond to this negative backlash Copeland told Cosmopolitan.com, "As an artist, you have to be sensitive and you have to be vulnerable, but at the same time, you can't let those things affect your performance, so I wanted to show that you can learn from these things, whether they're negative or positive and I wanted to show there's a positive way if you want to address these people, your critics, whoever is saying things about you who doesn't even know you. There's a way to do it so that it's not putting someone else down, but just kind of learning from the experience."

<a id="YboT5svAR2pRZzVusCkFKg" class="gie-single" style="color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;" href="http://www.gettyimages.com/detail/489393564" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Embed from Getty Images</a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'YboT5svAR2pRZzVusCkFKg',sig:'2HosQ8em0oyxE1RN3g2F_SI17UbGvlKHrN9MOa8bcjc=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'489393564',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});</script><script src='//embed-cdn.gettyimages.com/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async></script>

Even history makers aren't perfect all the time but there should be no question that Copeland isn't an absolutely fantastic dancer and she is opening up ballet to a whole new set of talented people. Back in 2012 when she headlined in Stravinsky’s “Firebird” and she first saw her own image as a billboard in front of the Metropolitan Opera House, she wrote in her memoir, “I was in profile, wearing a red leotard, with my chest and back arched so you could see my full, feminine breasts and my round butt. It was everything that people don’t expect in a ballerina. I stood completely still for five minutes, just crying. It was beauty. It was power. It was a woman. It was me.”<span style="font-size: 12px;"> </span>

As for why she decided to respond to the situation instead of just ignore it Copeland told <em><a href="https://www.cosmopolitan.com/entertainment/a19646033/misty-copeland-instagram-comments/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cosmopolitan</a>,</em> "I just try not to get caught up in reviews and reading things on the internet because they don't know you, and people don't know your journey, and I think that especially in America, especially in New York, when people come to see ballet, I think everyone kind of feels like they're a critic," Copeland said.

<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Screen-Shot-2015-05-11-at-6.06.02-AM.png"><img class="aligncenter wp-image-11851 size-full" src="https://admin.heragenda.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Screen-Shot-2015-05-11-at-6.06.02-AM.png" alt="misty copeland amy astley" width="590" height="337" /></a>“I think my whole journey has been different from what people expected and what people assume” explained ABT soloist, Misty Copeland.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">By now we’re all familiar with the<a href="https://admin.heragenda.com/power-agenda/misty-copeland/" target="_blank"> story of Misty’</a>s late bloom into ballet. However we know that with her hard work and determination it is possible to start training at 13 and progress to be a world renowned prima ballerina.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Whether she’s dancing or simply talking about her day, on a stage, Misty emits nothing but grace and class. Her aura is hard to ignore and prevails through her entire talk with Teen Vogue’s Amy Astley at 92 Y. Misty joined Amy for a candid and inspiring conversation about her career. From shooting her new documentary entitled, <a href="https://vimeo.com/124288652">A Ballerina’s Tale</a> to starring in Swan Lake, Misty proves time and time again that she’s truly a force to be reckoned with.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When asked about Nadia Comaneci writing her <a href="http://time.com/3823308/misty-copeland-2015-time-100/">TIME cover story</a> Misty shared, “I was so inspired by her and her story and she was definitely an influence on my dancing.”  Like most dancers, Misty knows that sometimes you have to take a few steps back before spiraling forward. Over the past years she has not only stepped back but extended a hand to help develop initiatives to support young dancers in low income neighborhoods. Her current project (in partnership with ABT),  <a href="http://www.abt.org/education/projectplie/video/">Project Plie</a>, seeks to combine training and support of ballet students from communities previously underrepresented in American ballet companies. The website explains that the program aims to create a nationwide network of partner professional ballet companies who are committed to diversity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Misty’s dance resume is a testament of her commitments as it proves to be quite diverse as well. Who else can go from a classical company Port de bras to plié-ing for pop-star Prince?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">And who knows what next? When asked what would be the ideal hip hop song to choreograph to, Misty shared “Maybe something J Cole. I’m really into J Cole right now, because he’s saying something.” Although later admitting she's not much of a choreographer, that's one collaboration we'd like to see happen!</p>
