Let’s take a moment to remember this classic, and why black fathers are important

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

The way he checked that white man for trying to instill doubt in his 14 year old child was beautiful. That white man is very well aware of the threat confident and talented black people.


And I don’t want to hear anything about the white husbands, because this is solely about fathers making sure their children’s success isn’t undermined by people trying to bring them down.

I mentioned in the Christopher Columbus thread we need to ask our children what their teachers are telling them in school.

Williams

He took tennis lessons from a man known as "Old Whiskey" and decided his future daughters would be tennis professionals when he saw Virginia Ruzici playing on television.[2] Williams says that he wrote up a 78-page plan, and started giving lessons to Venus and Serena when they were four and a half, and began taking them to the public tennis courts. (He now says he feels like he took them too early, and six is a better age.)[4] Soon he got them into Shreveport tennis tournaments. In 1995, Williams pulled them out of a tennis academy, and coached them himself.[5]
