Must be tough for black Japanese ppl to decide what minority they wanna identify as. If it's a half black half white it's a no brainer they always say "I'm black"

Congrats Naomi! Your name is great! Serena Williams will win I project.....
-
I really hope that Naomi takes this. I like her, and it would be a huge boost for her. Serena has already done so much to solidify herself as one of the all-time greats.
-
I still give it to Serena. She is admiring to square up. Naomi is still coming up at 20. The star is her limit I pray.
-
She did it; Naomi won! I’m proud of them both. Serena is undoubtedly an all-time great. I only hope that Naomi can continue to play well enough to join her on that elite stage one day.
-
I wish Naomi all the best. Serena Williams, congrats too. Losing a final in American soil will be discouraging to you but there's another opportunity.

An example of when dual citizenship works well. It was very smart and strategic of her father to have her play for Japan. Good luck to her and her sister!

Let me find out she got melanin in her system!

-
Her father is from Haiti! She lives in the U.S. but her mother told her to represent Japan because she would make more money. Her father was there Thursday night when she bet Madison Keys whose father is also black.
-
Not a best reason to represent your country. I hope is best for her to clarify that statement.

Don't believe everything people say on twitter lol

It will be a good match. I know she will try her best, but I think Serena has her eye on the prize and something to prove. Don't bet against Serena.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Real slick lede, y'all didn't want to call her Japanese because of her Haitian Father and God forbid you mention her Haitian heritage. What's difficult in saying she the first Japanese-Haitian? I swear the media is awful.
-
I understand where you’re coming from, but I have to respectfully disagree because they did mention that she is half-Haitian in the article.
-
She wasn’t mentioned properly. Period.
-
Reeaaaad the article...
-
I said what I said.
