Most people walk U Street and only see bars, brunch spots, and nightlife.
I see stories.
Black Broadway isn't something locked away in a museum. It's still here if you know where to look.
That's why I built a self-guided walking tour and wrote about the journey behind it.
honestly a profound sentiment and something that when i realized it, was really life changing for me. living to prove people wrong is no way to live. prove yourself right. believe that you have everything it takes and then go prove it. haters’ opinions are none of your business
An excerpt from Elina Svitolina's emotional letter about Gael Monfils to their daughter Skai, for @PlayersTribune, ahead of Gael's final Roland-Garros:
'The first thing you should know, I think, it’s that Gaël Monfils was one of the greatest shot-makers anyone has ever seen. There are others who were more consistent, or who made fewer mistakes … but it’s interesting. Because when you say why these players are great, maybe you are needing to give a long explanation. Or you are needing to show many statistics, or a whole match, or a whole tournament. But with your dad? It’s not like this. With your dad, it’s so simple. You can show someone a single point of his, even a single shot … and now they will “get it.” Because your dad, in just one shot, one moment, he could achieve what I think few athletes ever achieve. He could make people feel something. Almost like at a concert and there’s a perfect song, or at the movies and there’s a perfect line, and you have this feeling like, Oh my god. WOW. It takes your breath away.'
Something magical is brewing in D.C. A new chapter is here and the Washington Mystics' young quartet has belief building in the city as they star on SLAM 262.
