During the french Open I was saying to a friend that damn, no one can match black athletes in just being on the right side of everything publicly, even at great personal cost. He says, she's not black, she's Japanese cos she represents Japan & I'm like it's not her choice.
A lot of people don't get this about Kamala Harris either. How can she call herself black and Indian both? It's not her choice in America or even in India.
Osaka and Harris are black AND other things. There is no need to put them in one bucket or another.
Osaka is black, Japanese, Haitian, AND American. All of them. A flag in the Olympics doesn't negate others.
