23 years ago today, we lost Althea Gibson, the first Black athlete to win a Grand Slam.
The Jackie Robinson of tennis, Althea broke barriers and opened doors, paving the way for generations of athletes to pursue their dreams.
Every time we continue the work for equality, we honor her legacy.
We will never forget what she made possible.
