They…

penalized Simone Biles for being better

said Serena Williams looked like a man

applied different standards for Sha’Carri Richards

mocked Naomi Osaka about her mental health

excoriated Angel Reese for competitive taunting

All are BLACK women. All are CHAMPIONS despite the hate.

Well Behaved Women Rarely Make History

being a black hozier fan sucks/is tough/ is kinda lonely bc y'all consistently do this right here (couldn't have said it better myself)⬇️⬇️⬇️

LOVE the album but really cannot partake in the online celebration/discussions. just have to diligently avoid reductive takes from non-Black fans or else i will rip my hair out🤠

#OTD 1957: Althea Gibson Wins Wimbledon! 1st Black Tennis Player to win a Grand Slam!

By Miriam Kleiman, Public Affairs

NARA ID 58260. “From 143rd Street in Harlem to the center court in Wimbledon is about as far as one can travel.” —Althea Gibson

Althea Gibson, daughter of South Carolina sharecroppers, grew up in Harlem and became a champion of the very segregated sport of tennis. Gibson was the first Black tennis player to compete and win at both Wimbledon and the U.S. Nationals (Arthur Ashe was the 1st Black man to win at Wimbledon when he defeated Jimmy Connors 8 years later, in 1975). Eventually, she would play—and beat—all other top women’s tennis players worldwide, while shattering class and racial barriers!

Gibson, L, on the Wheaties box in 2001. Serena Williams, R, in 2019.

"In 2001, Wheaties paid homage to a true champion and an icon by putting her on the cover of a Wheaties Box. Althea Gibson was the FIRST Black Woman tennis player to be on the box. Today, I am honored to be the second. I have dreamt of this since I was a young woman and it’s an honor to join the ranks of some of America’s most decorated athletes. I hope my image on this iconic orange box will inspire the next generation of girls and athletes to dream big.” —Serena Williams
