When KING RICHARD speaks, we listen.
You idiot.
I can hear him talk all day! He is so wise just like my grandma. Older black people have the best stories.
YES they do!
I like listening to old white men also.
They have great stories also.
Most elders do.
Mr. B u are right, about the good old days.when we had it so good back then.
Yes brings tears to my eyes. Reminds me of my Grandfather

YEEEES! ALL HONOR TO RICHARD'S MOTHER, THE WORK OF HER HEART SHOWS AND IS HERE TO DISPLAY HER, WISDOM, KNOWLEDGE, AND SELF RESPECT, DILLIGENCE!
This interviewer, is a grinning fool. She has no idea who she is sitting before. I am so glad he checks her because she asks the dumbest questions, her amazement reflects her deepp seated racism.
She is astonished becaused she came to the interview with preconceived racist judgments and conclusions: he, Richard is ignorant, low, backward and so on. This is why her questions are insulting and disrespectful. She needs to give up trying to be an interviewer and find work doing something that she doesn't speak.
Absolutely love fact he checked the woman who wouldn't address the racist behaviour towards this one man but rather want this strong determined fearless man to back down . No way he said and I love that. Give it back never take it on the other cheek
After the dust settles he will be recognized as one of the great Americans. A privilege to live in his time.
Very much so and finally it is happening. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾☝🏾
Absolutely!

Wasn’t that powerful?! His mom programmed and lives through him! Woo! He should be a spokesperson for women. His love for and appreciation and respect for women, his belief in women’s powers - it’s all more than I’ve seen or heard from any male ever!
I just loved this man, and his wisdom.
Okay now give some adoration and acknowledgment to him for raising his daughters.
There aren't many people like Richard Williams in the world. He's most unique. He's a genius!
Did she really seat on her white privilaged and almost pretended him to apoligiezed...she got so unconfortable after instead of getting out of her bubble.

What about his other children??? We need to stop praising villains. He stopped raising another completer family...
@@michaelwiley7794 good point, but he still deserves praise for what he accomplished. i don't know the circumstances around his relationship with the other mother/mothers. to his credit according to the movie he did a good job with his 3 step daughters.
This may be a old interview. Nobody may never see my comment ,but this is one of the best motivations I've ever heard in my life because just like Richard, MY MOTHER RAISED ME!!!!! AN I'M ALL MAN!
Dereck I love your comment.
ONE OF MY BEST, TOO. HE NEVER BACKED DOWN. Very impressive e, coming from his ers
Je talk about venus, but not Serena
He is the most honest, fearless and the best father ever
This is the definition of a real man.
AMAZING BLACK MAN BEHIND THE MOST PHENOMENAL TENNIS SIBLINGS ON EARTH. HATERS AND RACISTS CANT TAKE THAT AWAY FROM HIM. LEGEND.
I agree with you ☝️
I've been watching these videos of him and his daughters.
It's quite fascinating to learn about.
He had no tennis experience at all yet he ended up being the most successful coach ever.
Having said that, I wish race wouldn't be brought into these conversations. Obviously I can see he's black (as you say) No need to talk about his race, especially since he's proven he and they can be equally talented and better, no matter race.
Expect greatness from all, no matter what race.
He is God to me . Will be my always hero
Mr. B Race matters and it played a pivotal role in their story.... they overcame against all odds which were against them because of their race.
@@aloewealth Apparently race wasn't an issue, because right there they are.
With all his accomplishments, people aren't happy unless he's backtracking and apologizing in some way. I loved how he shut her down, and stayed the course of blunt honesty!
denmark555 Its Is a real accomplishment to prove that Mr. Williams made it happen against all odds and at a time where not even one white female tennis could do yet Mr. Williams made it happen for two of his daughters unbelievable story. I wish this family the best and I wish one day to meet this genus!

She was distasteful as expected.
Yes, shut this wannabe interviewer down! Someone lied to her and told her she could hold a candle to Mr. Williams. She deluded herself.
Speak your truth and keep moving forward. ❤️🔥
I have just bought this book on Kindle. I am so taken by this man and difference between who I thought he was and who he really is. The media convinced me he was a mad man. He is an awesome force.
Sleepy Afro Films Eff media dude. You're too old for that media mindtrap. Prouda you for doing your own research though.
Sorry but you're pathetic if you allowed yourself to be convinced by the media for a grown man.
+Gil Nana - No need for name-calling let's keep it classy. He did his own research, and that's how you LEARN. Don't be disrespectful to someone who is taking the steps to acquire knowledge. If you disagree, that's okay but always do so respectfully.

"I don't back down", Richard Williams
Hi this is to Richard I want to say that you were speaking things the way you want it to be and that is call laws of attraction you know people don't understand that we have to be careful about the things that we say and do a speak you said that you were gonna have two girls before they were even born. The perfect example I want the people to know we can call in the things we want in our life. Richard wac lead by his God. The power is God. He put the ideal in us. Yes yes yes yessssss
When he spoke of women and the power, i don't have to wonder why his girls are so awesome.
What does it takes for this man to be inducted into the International Tennis Hall Of Fame? You or I will never see again two siblings dominant their sport in tennis. He raised not one but two champions in their respected sport in tennis. The Williams are legends and it's all due to their father Mr Richard Williams. It will be totally disrespectful to the sport of tennis, to The Williams Family, and to the Black Community if Mr Richard Williams is not inducted into the International Tennis Hall Of Fame before he dies!
Never even got a NAACP Image Award. Show me a better example of a Black Father. His own people will not acknowledge him.
Yes he need to be inducted, Great man, I really respect Mr. Williams!!
.
A TOTAL LEGEND.
Gerald Watkins I don’t expect white people to give Richard the credit he deserved. And am not surprised after all the very same white people are one that stole black people history.
Now I understand a little bit of where the toughness in Venus & Serena comes from.
IKR
Same here
There is a Feminist Agenda in the western world. Marriages are almost going extinct. Women now say they no longer need men. The world is truly messed up as time goes on.
Too right brother as a tennis coach 37 years on the more I see kids and players the more I see that without tough parents no excellence can be created no matter how good the coach is or talented the kid is. I wish there was a profile made about every champion’s parents the Borgs the Lavers Djokovics the Evert the Grafs the McEnroes etc

She was a tough woman to raise a man like him. I wonder how he would be if his father was the head of the family
Really? U might want to talk to oracene
Yeah so much respect for women he's got 9 kids with 3 different women. The latest when he was 70 with someone only a year older than Venus. He doesn't even talk to his 5 original kids he had before Venus or Serena, or the 1 kid he had in between marriages.
Am I the only one that shed tears listening to this interview? The older generation of black people paid for the freedom that we are enjoying now. I can only imagine how he survived those traumas without ending up with PTSD.
This man does not come from weak stock.
I'm sure most of the people that lived thru that do have ptsd in some form or another.

This man quote his mother like the Bible. I admire his strength. You have my respect King Richard.
This man "MADE" legends!! He deserves all the credit for Venus & Serena's success!!
Richard deserves ALL the Credit? None to Venus and Serena's mother? None to Rick Macci?
This guy is the real MVP.
I met Richard twice at Compton City Hall when I worked for cable. We talked about his plans back then. Second time, he brought both daughters to meet me. And I never forgot those meets...and he actually did what he told me he planned to do with his daughters. Watching this, I do understand where he's coming from and I still live here in Compton, CA to this day...he's right too. I know the park and the situation, too, that he had to deal with...gangs, drug sales and shootings. Bullets don't shoot people...and fear of Compton and it's environment didn't make me move either. Still here and living my best life in Compton. He was just as intense and I believed him at his word way back. Reminds me of my own dad, his values and experiences. People just don't understand....racism is what it is but we don't have to accept it as defining who we become in life. USC alumni and former Planning Commission member here...so I do remember him very well. A very strong man with lots of heart. We have a common history of having no fear of nothing. I got called a N in Torrance and I didn't even trip because I rolled up my car window and smiled at the nut who called me that. Men we don't back down and back away. Richard's my type of man...determined and very strong character. I liked him and when he came the second time to introduce me to his two daughters, I felt honored, because of his character. I'd love to sit down and chat with him again and apologize since my bosses didn't want to do a story on them when I tried to urge them it was a good story to profile on the city's government access channel those many years ago. And I had to give him the bad news, face to face. And he thanked me and they left....that's my life. I respect him for telling me his story in the hallways of city hall that time...and never forgot it. I"m 65 now and would love to circle back, but doubt if I'll ever get that chance to just have a chat about his life. Enjoyed this interview a lot having met the younger version of this dynamic man so long ago when he came down the hallway looking for Channel 36 and we met and I listened to his passion and plans. Rare moment in time...City of Compton missed an opportunity that time and I had to tell him they wouldn't pursue the chance to shoot video and see them on the courts at the county park. I wasn't happy about that either. And that was before video equipment was affordable for many of us. Camcorders weren't a thing back then...we used 3/4 format Sony U-matic portable decks with Ikegami tube cams that the city owned...we couldn't take them to do independent video naturally. I did shoot some vid of NWA in an alley another time with a coworker while they did the "F" the Police vid off Compton Boulevard. That footage has never been seen anyway. Friend has the master tape who worked with us so one day we'll digitize it maybe. IDK. My life has been six degrees of separation mostly. I enjoyed meeting him and his daughters though.
Wow this too is an awesome piece of information on the Williams thanks for sharing Mr. Michael Hill. ..."From Compton"!!! 🙌🏽💯
This man is so focused on what he wants to do that he doesn’t allow anyone or anything to take him off his path.
What a wonderful Blackman! I love him
This man is so smart!!!
I just love how he talks about his mother...so much reverence
Richard Williams is so intelligent, she couldn't keep up. Plus, she was too busy protecting white supremacy. I loved it when he asked her why she didn't ask him what happened after he told her to! I mean out of all the hell
and racism they have been put through, she wants to talk about his comment? I also like when he said the wealthy neighborhood was the ghetto. How he mentioned Eazy-E and Snoop, this man
is the greatest. I wish he was my dad.

He cannot be your dad you just make sure that you be a good dad.
Great interview. Great interview. He put her in check without getting disrespectful or calling her names or yelling her.
Yes, he sure did check her. I had to stop at times because she was so irritating. She doesn't know what she is doing. She doesn't know the greatness before her. She is the type of person who would ask questions like: is water wet?
What a disappointment she is.
He shut her down🙌🏽😊
@@pjj.5649 yes she was an awful interviewer, I was getting irritating as well with her.
Yes, cause she was going there.
I am sure he was tempted. It's a true test to be in the presence of a fool who doesn't know what she is doing.
Richard Williams is f**king awesome!
Boom shakalaka!
One of the greatest interviews ever.
The woman is expecting some sweet little interview and what did she get..
*Boom shakalaka'd*
What she did it's a common white folk mistake she believed the narrative before talking to the man
My heart wept when you said, your father ran. You are so strong.
A modern day Hero. Richard Williams is a "thinking man" and I am so grateful he wrote this book.
I think the interviewer believes that the Williams's success comes from positive thinking and motivational speeches. She doesn't grasp the gravitas of the confidence that arrises when you get beaten like a dog your whole life and still form irrefutable success habits. To be fair: she couldn't know what it's like to be black in America, but Mr. Williams's wisdom is clearly way beyond her mental capacity.
Wow! Mr. Williams has the gift of relentless forward thinking which allowed him many fantastic moments in life and provided the American dream for his great family. More power to you Mr. Williams. I have 2 daughters who were taught sports and higher education with my wife also. He is the bomb period. Thank you.. Mr. Goat.
That's fair bro, she did have a beautiful soul not a dirty one, just brainwashed and naive! Glad you posted your comment bc I would have never realized that it's a lot of people out there who come off like that, but they just don't know so thank you again bro
@@gregorynoel7951 you right, he reminds you to stick to your guns
Absolutely, Clark, this interviewer has very poor interviewing skills. Her questions, responses, tone of voice indicate she is out of her league. She is sitting before greatness and doesn't even know it. She has no idea of what racism is. The truth if what Mr. Williams has lived through. I don't know who told her she could handle such a powerful interview, but they mislead her because each time she opens her mouth to ask a question it is like she is at a carnival and is asking how is cotton candy made.
Ugh. I sat through this low-grade interview only because I wanted to hear Mr. Williams. I could do without the interviewer.
The interviewer asked him, "Well why not be nicer?" "Why not be the bigger person?" I think Mr. Williams was trying to convey to her that it is not his responsibility to be nice.
I agree people said a lot of nasty things about him and his daughters. No reason to apologize Mr. Williams. You spoke the truth.
Brilliant interview. He shut her down; she is trying to call him out but he put her in her place. Good on him. This is so very motivational.
Agree,like most journalists always trying to turn things around in the hope that he will say something racist or something along that line. I’m glad she didn’t push her luck,he would have burned her alive or worse.The Truth knows no fear. I hope that interviewer learned some thing. Amen?

That's the best quote
Richard Williams is a genius!!! A black man from Compton raising two young girls to be tennis champions.If somebody made this a fictional movie EVERY director/producer would laugh in that screenwriters face...and tell them " Nobody would EVER believe this....GET THAT CRAP OUTTA HERE!!".. .If you can dream it....you can achieve it
And look now…. Four years on from your comment!!
There's a movie now😉
His whole interview is speaking on nothing but the power of the mind and making a laser focus to commit to your vision, in his case the vision was making his daughters to be the best Tennis players. He LITERALLY made a plan of that and stuck to it and proceeded to see it through. When it comes to manifestation and the law of attraction this story hits all the points on how when you commit to a vision and believe in the wish fulfilled then a bridge of incidents will bring it to realization. This interview alone is inspiring when thinking about what I want to commit to and accomplish for myself.🙏🏾
Agree. This Lady couldn’t comprehend.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste...the immensely powerful nature of the human brain. Don't waste it n it'll serve you well

I love Mr Williams and his wisdom.

The shut down, the mental strength of this man is everything. Cannot wait to see this film and read his book. If I read nothing else in my life his book will inspire generations to come
If i wasn't blessed to have the daddy i have, i would want this guy as my father. Wow. He really gets it. Love him.
YOU ARE AWESOME MR RICHARD WILLIAMS.
the biggest lesson he learnt was not to end up like everyone around him. he had no barriers in his mind.
I think the ability to believe in yourself is the most important message from this whole interview. I'm not much of a movie person but I can't wait to see this movie with my young daughters.
Me too😊 Inspirational
GREAT MOVIE: KING RICHARD!!!!!🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🎊🎉🥇💕
Absolutely!!! This man is very wise and his daughters are so blessed to have a father that inspired
and encouraged them to be the best that they can be, which is the greatest in the world..
I watched the movie 2 times in two days, already. Fascinating and inspiring!❤
So much respect for this man .
I understand everything he’s saying because I see greatness in my children as well and I will be the driving’s force behind them.
You will! Can’t wait to see the impact they will make on this world!
A strong black man. Period! One that refused (and still refuses) to be anything other than the force he is. So inspiring! 🤎
He definitely set that Indian Wells situation straight. Blindsided that interviewer. Good for her.
OMG thanks Richard williams you are so wise i have learnt something worth more than a million dollars.
I think the interviewer wasn’t prepared for what she got! She tried to make him out to be a monster and he came out on top!! His love for his mother respect for (women) and his family is astounding!!! Thank you King Richard for given us this history!!
Richard Williams: most confident dude in the world. Period.
KING RICHARD. RESPECT!!! GOD BLESS YOU SIR.
"You don't have to wait for people to wrong. Admit to yourself what is true, and move accordingly." Period! I felt this, amongst other quotes!
These people made us believe Richard was a crazy man. Dude sounds like a down to earth man who loves & respects everyone.....
Mr. Williams is a true inspiration. Wow. All that he has faced as a child has blessed him to be a conquerer. He had a vision and never allowed a soul to distract him.
What he said about his mom ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
She did not know how to control the interview and was really intimidated by Richard's genius and intelligence...y would she not ask about indian wells and insinuate that he created hate towards his daughter's by saying lil white trash girls...he is too smart tho and called her out on it. She did not know how to react to that. Lol
SalRN14 no one can control that confident man! He set that Indian Wells story straight
It got very quiet then.
SalRN14 she was quick to defend the girls he called trash......but she refused to give sympathy to the Williams girls at Indian Wells, even after Richard mentioning it to her over and over and over. What's going in here?
@@geraldtek We all know what it is!
Great man! If a white man raised two tennis daughters he would be praised. Because Richard Black he can't get the credit.
Let me be very clear & very honest when I say there has never been a champion that has been more disrespected & discredited for their achievements & accomplishments than the Great Serena Williams. No One, not Pete Sampras & his Ok topspin backhand or Stefan Edberg & his unorthodox forehand or Steffi Graf & her rarely used topspin backhand or Monica Seles & her crablike footwork or any former champion & their not-so-great go-to-shot or underrated shot, No One has been horribly criticized more than the Great Serena Williams. And I'm tired of it. Serena Williams has won 20 Slam majors & is well on her way 2 tying Steffi Graf's 22 then breaking it & the All Time record of 24 by Australia's Margaret Court But some low life Haters are trying 2 discredit her Legend. These Losers & obvious Haters are trying but it won't matter if they keep trying 2 make us believe the current WTA tour is weak & inferior and that's why Serena Williams has been able 2 dominate her competition. It can't be because Serena has improved her overall game & cause she's more mentally & emotionally stronger than she was when she 1st became Number 1 in the world in 2002 at 21 years old. Of course, these Haters hate 2 hear that if Serena was a White American, those Haters would Love her & support her like they supported Justine Henin, Kim Clijsters, Maria Sharapova & every other white non-American WTA player. I wish I was wrong but I'm an American & unfortunateIy I know these Haters have a lot of issues like most Americans. This is another reason why I'm SO Proud of Serena & Venus. Throughout All of the Hatred & lack of support from some of the white Amercan tennis fans. Serena & Venus have remained focused, strong & kept their eyes on the prize. There have definitely been a few bad moments along the way but they've remained positive & moved on from any professional disappointments & public scrutiny. They are the perfect role models for the young, non-Caucasian & really anyone. No matter what problems & negativity they've had 2 deal with they still remain positive & driven 2 succeed. I hope Serena breaks each & every WTA record. And I hope Venus can overcome her illness & win at least 1 more major title before she retires. I'll keep my fingers crossed for both sisters. : )
Well said. Sharapova is paid more in endorsements, Rodger Federer who I might add is a great champion and wonderful person is revered, and treated like a king but Serena who might add has accomplished more than him at the same age is not given the same reverence. But I like the attitude of the William sisters. They rise above it all. They epitomize the first part of Maya Angelou poem, Still I Rise " You may write me down in history with your bitter, twisted lies You may trod me in the very dirt but still, like dust, I'll rise. They have risen despite obstacles and I am so very proud of them.
God Bless you Richard Williams for the work you have done with your girls.

***** Absolutely in fact American don't even acknowledge Serena and Venus or back them that's racism for sure!!!
I’m only 12 minutes in...This is the most powerful interview I’ve ever heard! I’m learning so much about parenting. Tears!!!!
Wow! What a man.
“Richard Williams on raising champions in tennis “-He was a Black family strategist and visionary. He speaks intelligently and confidently from his historical experience and mother’s matriarchal wisdom. As the father of Serena and Venus Williams, he spoke clearly and decisively to tell his story as a great father that led his daughters to their victories in life. He and his struggles and patriarchal dedication to his daughters success deserves more acknowledgement and study as an exceptional father and human being. As an “unsung hero prototype, his book should be revered and studied for the benefit of all men and Black men, in particular.
He is the truth!! We need more fathers like him in the black community!!!
You definitely got that right...
hes a super heroe in my book.. good dad althoigh he didnt have a dad.. saw his mim as a heroe heroe in my book he deserves everytbing he has with his daughter..the truth is God blessed him... nothing else... God Blessed him for listening to his mom. i see this all the time!!
King Richard Williams prophesied life and prosperity on his family. This ladies and gents is a true visionary!
This man is a protector, provider, and defender of his girls' self esteem. Many people demonized him for the sheer audacity of being black, bold, and confident in himself and his children.
His father ran and left his 5 year old son there. I can't even imagine. There needs to be another movie called Before he became king
I love how he honors women and pays so much homage to his mother. What a man Richard Williams is.
I am astonished by what Richard Williams has accomplished despite all odds... Simply put, this man is a Legend! What he has done and accomplished is extraordinary. Thank you Sir for giving us such amazing tennis super Stars - Venus and Serena Williams.
I love this interview!! I'm buying his book too.
His words are piercing and unforgettable...He is KING RICHARD!
I enjoyed listening to Mr. Richard Williams. I can listen to him all day and learn a lot. He's such a great man and an awesome father. May God be with him and his family always.
The man is remarkable! We NEED more black father's like Mr. Williams.
Really? Doesn't he have children he turned his back on??
He can perhaps be a little hard to understand at first, but I really hope people stick with this interview because he has a fantastic story to tell of courage, determination and overcoming severe adversity... what an inspiration!
@@llIllIlI I also find him a little difficult to understand. He is a good storyteller nonethless
People that find him hard to understand are hard to be understood.
@@JasmeenNKaur-yd5vo Sometimes it's hard to understand things when you haven't been in someone else's shoes. We have to learn to listen, be understanding, kind, and considerate to all people.
@@pamelabell5132 I think they were speaking of his speech, not what he was saying in regards to understanding him.
@@radiantlibra87 His speech is English, he may not articulate the way they feel it should sound, it’s still English and they understand, they just find something to complain about!
This is a very thought provoking interview just because of Mr. Williams. The lady was not ready for this interview. Any person who thinks Tennis is not prejudiced is unaware of anything at all. Truth is TRUTH. Period. Nothing has changed. She asks questions to try to make him act crazy but he never did. LOL. She thought that if she turned up the heat - he would surely curse and rant. (Never happened)! That's just amazing! He survived and thrived in the worst possible circumstances and he did it on his own terms. The truth stands.
Iconic KING RICHARD!!! When people don't understand you and they fear you, they see you as a threat. However, people's perceptions doesn't matter, when you know who you are!!!
I was pleasantly surprised hearing this interview. I have a higher level of respect for Mr. Williams.
Respect.
He is a great father who wanted best for his kids and he never stopped at any hurdles that life gave him. Me an my wife always discuss about this interview and some of the words have styled with us ever since. TY Richard.....
He was a great father to Venus and Serena but not his other children by his first kids mother.
This is so important for us black men this testimony. Black men determination for their kids is once they decide it, everything. Richard Williams, Matthew Knowles, Joe Jackson.... we all know that their path is different in each way as regard their behaviour and character. But We have to bare in mind that once you decide something while raising up your kids for something different for their life and change the world with their impact as a black father, We have to stay focussed overdetermined. Richard Williams book can be a bible to get the keys and the clues to reach success. We all know how people around are judgmental (family, friends, whoever), the influence of the surroundings can lead us to quit. But those black men followed their way. They did it. So as a black man, as a father of 2 daughters, it is an obligation for me to get this book. For my girls but above all... for me! Thanks Richard Williams
Bless you Mr. Richard. You have raised two beautiful champs. ❤️
Mr Richard Williams has a depth of wisdom. His philosophy is priceless..'you are the world..let the world live through you '.His mother must have been phenomenal.
This man demonstrates how the power and the will of the mind. works. Also, I love how he honors his mom and women in general cause it is true there isn´t anything a woman can´t do once she puts her mind to it. Like Oprah said, ¨When you educate women the world will change for the better¨.
Love you dad Richard....
He is beyond genuine and sincere. Regarding the interviewer, it is understood that as a journalist you ideally gather your questions from your readers. If the questions you choose to present to your guest shine a light on your bias without any intent to gain perspective, then re-evaluate. She was wise enough to be quiet rather than deny it
a male who is a man, much respect
A male who IS a MAN! AMEN
A Man of African descent who Should have been mentally crippled from his horrid and treacherous treatment from bigots in the south… and is still a: proud, fearless, articulate black man!!!!!!!!
Amazing person that made Not only one Champion, but two!
She kept skipping past Indian Wells. This is why racism still exist. He said they came at him and his daughter and as a parent what else was he supposed to do. As a man. She could not handle this interview but she stuck in there. I don't know if she thought she would lose ratings or sponsorship and that's why she did not answer him. Thought out this whole interview Mr. WILLIAMS refuse to dim his light to make her feel better.
awesome champion father this man is
Huge Congrats to Mr. Williams!!!! Those Williams sisters are who they are today because of his vision, belief & conviction. What an historic biographical story this is!!!!! BRAVO and Hats Off To The Phenomenal Williams Family!!!! THANK YOU!!!!
"From where I come, we couldn't put a racket up...." That says so much!
A truly amazing father, man and son. Surely, there are not that many men, let alone parents like him around. I took what the media served with a pinch of salt but this interview was a revelation.... I see him in both Venus and Serena....soft-spoken with steely resolve!
What a father. Loved everything he said.
what a great father
Vinnie Mac And people says there is no black Fathers on Earth well I hope who looking at this take a deep breath .
Vinnie Mac when he talks he is so happy and jovial and I wish I had a Father like him His Aura and his knowledge I know he Love all children and want all to do good Do you know How I can get his Book I need to get one.
I have a lot of respect for Mr Williams. He was right about Indian Wells when he asked her why didn't you ask me about what happended to us at Indian Wells.
"It's what do you expect out of yourself" ... "if you expect to be stopped you're gonna be stopped"
Period!
pay attention to her response by saying she wasn't going to back down as well
