      Such interviewers are scares lately. It's refreshing. Most of the time the interviewer would speak over people aas if they already know what the abswer to their questions are.

      @chocolateradiance7216 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Same...for me it's because me and Venus and Serena are a couple years apart. 79, 80, 81 so I understand the environment and the times they grew up in. I was watching them play as teens and I was very enamored by them especially their parents because I didn't have a mother and father like that. Their main focus was their kid's regardless of what their own struggles were..that's kinda unheard of especially in the black community and the way the daddy vetted them and believed in them. The 80's and 90's was the crack epidemic and also a lot of single black mama's left to fend for themselves so it amazes me through a time like that this mother and father kept their eyes on the prize and kept pushing. So many parents then was depressed, down and out or on drugs. It was a dark time for alot of black communities but despite it all they persevered

Richard Williams was a Great Man from The Time I 1st Seen Him years & YEARS Ago!!! I've ALWAYS Rooted & Cheered for The Williams Family & Was Very VERY Happy To See The Two BLACK QUEENS 👸👸 Dominant Tennis 🎾🎾 In The Climate years that they started in.... Even Back THEN I Thought Mr. Williams was a GENIUSES of a man & a hell of a GOOD Father!!!
    🤴 King-Richard Spoke The TRUTH about The Racism in Tennis, The Media Portrayal of HIM & his BEAUTIFUL Daughters!!! It was horrendous to me what all Mr. Richard Williams endured as a GOOD-MAN, as a Caring-Father, & as a Professional.... I Remember that It was OUTRAGEOUS to say the least 😠😡🤬.... I can remember how the Reports made fun of him & his daughters & saying all kind of hideous things.... I Even Remember how Venus & Serena wasn't getting their proper endorsements nor The DEALS that they should have been getting in the beginning!!! Because they were BLACK GIRLS.... I remember how they used to make fun of their hair & say all kind of ungodly crap!!! It made me so upset 🤬😡😠😡🤬 These were children at that particular time! But to me they were BEAUTIFUL they were TALENTED they were Well-Behaved, Well-Dressed & it just still didn't matter to the haters in the Media industry! That WASN'T RIGHT....
    I remember Sir King Richard Williams fight for His Children Wife Family & Equality the whole step of the way!!! In My Eyes 👀 They're BLACK Excellence Royalty & Power from the 1st Time they stepped on the seen!!! I've ALWAYS LOVED what I've seen of the family throughout the years!!! I'm So Happy For Them ALL...!!!❣️❣️❣️
    I've ALWAYS Wanted To Personally interact with the whole Beautiful Williams Family 🤴👸👸👸👸👸👸🤴 ❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
    Thank You'll For Showcasing 🤴 KING-RICHARD Williams within HIS Great Movements Throughout The Earlier Days of Showcasing HIS Greatest Accomplishments Throughout ❣️

    I listened to Richard in an interview conducted back when He released His book. And listening to Him was impressive. His life lessons came from His Mother. He would speak about Her wisdom and Her lessons to Him for preparedness. All I thought was, 'how awesome is that Woman who taught Her son to weather the storms of People and Oppression!' Then I see how He prepared His Children for battle, but on the Courts of Sport and Success! And I listened to Richard know that He just had to not give in to the naysayers. But instead to Hold Fast and keep His Family Protected and Close. So close that Family Members ARE the Best Friends! It TRULY TRULY is about Integrity. And seeing that Family ride the waves after Success came, before this movie, makes me feel both Honored and Excited to see it. I'm glad that this cast has won the approval of these two World Class WomenLeader Athletes.

    This is an incredible interview. Venus and Serena are the greatest. I have so much
    respect for Mr. Richard Williams. I bought the DVD "Raising Tennis Aces" years ago.
    Mr. Williams has been one of my favorite people ever since. It was interesting that
    Will Smith talked about the time Mr. Williams checked the reporter, when he was interviewing Venus.
    That interview was also one of the things that made me admire him even more. Can't wait to see the movie.

    The film and cast grabbed my heart so much that I wanted to watch it again. The film took me back to joy and excitement that was felt in America among black and African American families, when the Williams sisters were the highlight of the headlines and social media. It captured Venus’ and Serena’ confidence and passion. But one of the greatest messages in the film, I believe we can all take is to have a vision for self and family, plan and write it out, work together as a family, commit and stay focus while remaining humble especially in every victory. Also, don’t get so caught up on winning that you forget to live. ❤️💐❤️👏🏾❤️⭐️

    With all due respect to Will Smith. The performance is given by Aunjanue Ellis. That is what everyone seems to be missing. Her performance is the best! When she walked across the street to that woman's house and knocked on the door. When she worked with Serena, and then when she told Richard what was up when it came to Venus wanting to play. You have to give her the props on this film. She was the best performance!

I know there are a lot of interviews to keep up with but it has been address. Will even asked them do they think he will watch it and she said if he did they might not know. Just saying for those that didn't know.
