El legado de Serena Williams

Serena Williams pasará a la historia del tenis como una de las mejores deportistas, pero también ha tomado la bandera de defender a una de las minorías más atacadas en Estados Unidos: la población de raza negra.

En 2016, tras la muerte de dos ciudadanos negros baleados por la policía con tan solo un día de diferencia, Serena Williams se unió a un grupo de deportistas afroestadounidenses para pronunciarse. “Me di cuenta de que debemos seguir. No es cuestión de cuánto hemos avanzado, sino de lo mucho que nos queda por avanzar todavía. ¡No me silenciarán!”, escribió en su muro de facebook.

Además, Serena es una de las atletas más completas con un carácter explosivo que le ha ganado críticas, pero con un palmarés de 23 cetros del Grand Slam del cual solo ella puede presumir. La menor de las Williams ha aprendido a favorecerse de la controversia para no permitirle al público olvidar su raza y como tal acepta su responsabilidad como representante de su gente.

Tras coronarse en Wimbledon en 2016, se le preguntó a Serena qué podría hacerse para atender los problemas de fondo tras la emboscada fatal de varios agentes policiales de Dallas por un francotirador para protestar por la muerte de ciudadanos negros a manos de las autoridades. Entonces, ella respondió: “No pienso que la respuesta sea seguir baleando a nuestros jóvenes negros en Estados Unidos… o a los negros en general, y evidentemente la violencia no es la respuesta para resolver esto. Los ataques […] fueron muy tristes. Nadie merece perder su vida sin importar el color de su piel o su lugar de origen. Todos somos humanos.”

De hecho, Williams eligió no jugar en Indian Wells en California por muchos años después de que ella y su padre dijeron haber escuchado insultos racistas de aficionados molestos por el abandono de Venus antes de encontrarse con su hermana en la cancha.

El legado de Serena sobrepasa su éxito en el deporte. Ella descubrió desde muy joven su poder y lo usó para darle voz a quienes callaban por su color de piel. Créanme, si hoy vemos competir a Osaka y Gauf, es porque Williams les abrió la puerta.
