Letâs be clear about Serena Williams. SHE IS THE G.O.A.T., and the grandstanding over pending retirement by white media, the U.S. Open is rich. They spent YEARS doing everything they could to sabotage, break and demean the Williams sisters. And their excellence couldnât be denied.
But what I love to see more than anything is thisâ Billy Jean King and Martina Navratilova having to be gracious after
talking sh*t about her for years. B.J.K. gave a speech about our good sisâ GOAT status, and Navratilova watched her dominate her opponent after saying the 23-time Grand Slam winner wasnât it anymore.Iâm sure Serena doesnât give a damn about either one of them. But THIS is and has been the story for many Black womenâ being the absolute standard and epitome of excellence, and folks constantly try to diminish our shine. The difference here isâthe world got to watch, and now that same world gets to see. OUR shining star in Nike and Diamonds be given the respect she shouldâve always had!
I wish she wouldâve worn blinged-out beads and cornrows for these last gamesâŠ.for a final K.M.A.!
Whether or not Serena wins is irrelevantâŠShe has accomplished feats that NOT ONE OF HER HATERS has.
And then I look at the circle of Black women-Â I KNOW AND LOVE!
The squad consists of diplomatic liaisons, managing editors, national directors of organizations, V.P.s of MAJOR organizations, game-changing life coaches, founders of Black imprints at major publishers, high-ranking best-selling authors, administrators in healthcare, high-ranking positions within the federal governmentâŠetc. SISTERS THAT GET SH*T DONE! I AM PROUD TO CALL THEM FRIENDS! They will read this and know who they are! I salute yâall!
Take note, Black women, the folks that talk the most sh*t about us, COULD NEVER do what WE DO!
I love to see it! đÂ
