It is hard experiencing things. I take no action, but hope that I age.

I feel a bit fatigued talking about it just because of the fact that it is hard being a Black woman in this country and having to experience things, even online, and seeing marginalized communities being affected


Anyone tell her that there are one way flights leaving out of this country about every minute to minute and a half every day?

Yes

Low impulse control - but she’s an outlier

You will find that blacks in non majority black countries and looked at with the same prejudice. It's not just America!!

Funny thing it, because she is an American, she will be looked on with a lot more prejudice in majority black countries.

Regardless, with a net worth of $35M, if she's that tired, she can go live in almost any other country in the world. And with her status as a tennis player, they may even consider giving her a dual citizenship so she can represent them in future competitions.

"As a black woman, I am saddened that retail managers are now coordinating with law enforcement to stop black women from dragging dey kids through grocery stores and department stores filling their buggies with hundreds of dollars-worth of merchandise and casually making a scene of strolling out the front door without paying because muh reparations.

I am saddened that groups of young black men and women are being targeted simply because they enjoy instigating violent destructive brawls in restaurants, amusement parks, cruise ships, graduation ceremonies, and sporting events, over extremely minor issues like an insufficient number of ketchup packets being provided, or any number of random examples of perceived 'disrespect.'

It's hard being a black woman in this country because, despite having a master's degree in Sub-Saharan African Art History with a minor in Breaking the Chains of Colonialism, no one will pay me a six-figure salary or allow me to hold 'White Supremacy Awareness' seminars during lunch breaks. I am saddened to know that black women and men will soon no longer be able to perpetuate the 'systemic racism' myth and will likely be reduced to admitting that we never really wanted 'equality', we want revenge.

The Williams sisters seem to be nice ladies. I wouldn't lump them in with the likes of this one.

She should try being a black woman in Africa.

For starters, she likely would have had her genitals mutilated when she was a young girl, to keep her "pure". Not to mention the fact that she likely would have never had the opportunity to play tennis, probably having to work at a menial job for..if she's lucky...maybe $200 a month.

It’s super easy to be a black woman is North Africa.

She should try it.

There are plenty of majority-black countries in the world, yet she stays here.

Black women are easily the most disliked demographic in this country. They're just too self-important to notice.

It’s hard being a black woman in this country as opposed to the countries of her West African ancestry?

And many countries don't even require a visa if you have an American passport. Perhaps she can try Haiti or Nigeria...

She may have an outstanding arrest warrant for 'killing a racket' from what I watched.

I have no problem with what she said.

Do you get triggered every time you see an opinion you disagree with op?
