The best finish of 2019? The final game of the year, of course!

From our earliest days, Black history has always been American history – and Black folks have profoundly shaped our American culture through music, art, literature, sports, and beyond. One month a year is not sufficient to celebrate the power of the movements and the people who have fought for the rights we enjoy today. That’s something that we have to do each and every day, as we strive to live up to their example and make sure our children and grandchildren remember their stories.

Hey @MLB, hope to see this play on the highlights! It's definitely a #playsoftheweek by @Nationals Luis Garcia Jr.

@jrpsaki I love this too but also hope it doesn't mean higher ticket prices for these airlines to pass their losses onto travelers.

Hey @POTUS pay attention to this tweet. It seems like a slogan is brewing in there.

Players of the time.
By the time the walls of segregation in tennis started falling, the Peters sisters were past their prime and were never able to compete in racially integrated matches. They were inducted into the Tuskegee Hall of Fame in 1977.#BlackHistoryMonth

[Michelle Boykins @MichelleBMedia]

Before Venus & Serena Williams, there was Margaret and Matilda Peters. They were nicknamed “Pete” and “Repeat” for their doubles playing skills and last name. The Peters Sisters attended Tuskegee University in 1937.

[Michelle Boykins @MichelleBMedia]

After graduating from Tuskegee University in 1942, they both continued to play tennis in the American Tennis Association. They won 14 Doubles Tennis titles between 1938 and 1953. Despite their great skill, the sisters were never allowed to compete against the great white Doubles
