The Williams sisters make me proud! Young, positive, black women, doing the damn thing around the globe-and getting paid. Venus made over $1 million dollars for a day's work.

What I liked was how this time around, they dispensed with all of the hair extensions and designer outfits and baubles and make-up. They went back to basics; stepped out on the court, played their game, and in Venus' case, kicked butt!

I'm so proud and happy for Venus, too. She's a champion in so many more ways than just tennis, and so is Serena. :-)

Serena is now dating a black man. An actor to be exact. He grew up down the street from me.
