Why do we accept the scraps from someone else's table? Even if we make those scraps delicious, it's still scraps/trash. Don't we deserve the choice meats?
Is it time we grow and stop using the N-word?

In Vogue’s September issue, @serenawilliams prepares to say farewell to tennis on her own terms and in her own words. “It’s the hardest thing that I could ever imagine,” she says. “I don’t want it to be over, but at the same time I’m ready for what’s next” vogue.cm/g773XK3

.@serenawilliams on retiring: “Believe me, I never wanted to have to choose between tennis and a family. I don’t think it’s fair. If I were a guy, I wouldn’t be writing this.”
I am honored to have watched her play and to walk the earth in her lifetime.
