See Marian Anderson, "the first black person, American or otherwise, to perform at the Metropolitan Opera in New York City on January 7, 1955".  General Ization Talk  18:18, 19 February 2018 (UTC)

Yes, I know all about Marian Anderson. She was the first African American to perform at the Met, but it was very late in her career, it was a supporting role, and she only sang a few performances. It was Leontyne who became the first African American to play a leading role, and the first to become a major star at the Met - Leosdaddy
