Serena Williams is порнография в россииjoining the ranks of outspoken athletes using their platforms to raise awareness and spark dialogue about police violence in America.
In a Facebook post published Tuesday afternoon, the tennis superstar and arguably the greatest athlete ever penned a statement on a recent experience she had while driving with her 18-year-old nephew.

Her immediate reaction was to see if he was driving at the speed limit, but she also thought of the people who have been killed this summer — referring to Philando Castile and Alton Sterling, among many others — because of their encounters with police.
"I would never forgive myself if something happened to my nephew. He's so innocent. So were all 'the others,'" she wrote. "Why did I have to think about this in 2016? Have we not gone through enough, opened so many doors, impacted billions of lives?"
"As Dr. Martin Luther King said, 'There comes a time when silence is betrayal,'" she wrote. "I won't be silent."
You can read Williams' full statement, posted on her Facebook page, below:
Today I asked my 18 year old nephew (to be clear he's black) to drive me to my meetings so I can work on my phone #safteyfirst. In the distance I saw cop on the side of the road. I quickly checked to see if he was obliging by the speed limit. Than I remembered that horrible video of the woman in the car when a cop shot her boyfriend. All of this went through my mind in a matter of seconds. I even regretted not driving myself. I would never forgive myself if something happened to my nephew. He's so innocent. So were all "the others" I am a total believer that not "everyone" is bad It is just the ones that are ignorant, afraid, uneducated, and insensitive that is affecting millions and millions of lives. Why did I have to think about this in 2016? Have we not gone through enough, opened so many doors, impacted billions of lives? But I realized we must stride on- for it's not how far we have come but how much further still we have to go. I than wondered than have I spoken up? I had to take a look at me. What about my nephews? What if I have a son and what about my daughters?
As Dr. Martin Luther King said " There comes a time when silence is betrayal".
