Serena Williams is the icon we all need. One reason why I look up to her and why many
people is that she is a strong woman. Not only physically, but mentally. Serena has faced racism
and sexism throughout her career, but she doesn’t allow it to destroy her drive. She keeps her
eye on the ball and continues to live her best life. I want to end this section of Serena Williams
with a quote she said. “I’m a Black woman, and I am in a sport that wasn’t really meant for Black
people. So to those of you involved in equality movements like Black Lives Matter, I say this:
Keep it up. Don’t let those trolls stop you. To other people, I
say: When someone’s harassing someone else, speak up!”
