@suzannelabanane So true - it’s such an important space for young people to experience many of their “firsts”: first time to fully feel safe & not be ashamed of who you are, first steps to grow/love/accept yourself more, first sense of freedom, & first time falling in love.
May your heroic deeds and moving words be forever immortalized in our hearts and minds and inspire us to continue your legacy to fight for justice and equality for all. Rest in power. #RIPJohnLewis#goodtrouble
Do not get lost in a sea of despair. Be hopeful, be optimistic. Our struggle is not the struggle of a day, a week, a month, or a year, it is the struggle of a lifetime. Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble. #goodtrouble

This year, Bianca Andreescu and Rafael Nadal each got paid exactly the same amount ($3.85M) for winning their respective US Opens Finals.
Know why it's equal?
Because in 1973, @BillieJeanKing threatened to boycott the tournament unless women were paid the same as men.

HISTORIQUE. 🇨🇦
BIANCA ANDREESCU est la CHAMPIONNE de l'#USOpen!
La joueuse de 19 ans a joué son meilleur tennis pour défaire Serena Wiliams 6-3, 7-5, devenant la première Canadienne à remporter un tournoi du Grand Chelem en simple.
