This is nice ☺️
I love this new generation of young tennis players of color!
Wish I could have fit the whole quote in the title!
“I grew up watching my dad get discriminated against, having the cops called on him multiple times at the tennis court. There are multiple things I will apologize for in my life but celebrating being black and appreciating who we are will never be something I would consider saying sorry for.”
Super cute. Love that they support each other.
The way the Tennis aport is so racist to black players I’m so glad they can get together and celebrate each other. This is so beautiful
All-white parties for tennis players historically were just called “parties”.
Love to see it ❤️
Love this, tennis thrives with diversity.
It’s great
This is great. Supportive & uplifting!
A lot of the comments in the tennis sub did not pass the vibe check when this was posted yesterday. Not surprising but still disappointing.
“What is it about POC getting together that unsettles you so much?”
YES, MA’AM. TELL ‘EM
This looks like a beautiful dinner party!
I’m so glad she did this. I feel like if Serena and Venus had this type of camaraderie as well during their time it would’ve been slightly easier for them, but unfortunately, they had to be the first not the first but you know what I mean like they were the only for quite a long time.
I am a little bit concerned, though why no ben there maybe he was just busy?
I fucking love this for them! 🙂
