The US Open has two African-American finalists playing for the title.

8. WHAT????

This is some BS. As in the statement itself.

Where is Ta-Nehisi Coats when folks need his truth. Oh, right here....

For Trump, it almost seems that the fact of Obama, the fact of a black president, insulted him personally.

The insult intensified when Obama and Seth Meyers publicly humiliated him at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner in 2011. But the bloody heirloom ensures the last laugh. Replacing Obama is not enough—Trump has made the negation of Obama’s legacy the foundation of his own. And this too is whiteness.

“Race is an idea, not a fact,” the historian Nell Irvin Painter has written, and essential to the construct of a “white race” is the idea of not being a nigger. Before Barack Obama, niggers could be manufactured out of Sister Souljahs, Willie Hortons, and Dusky Sallys."

Change the names and the passage work just the same on a "Not A Significant Development" BS.

Also, PS or #FYI -- Neither Venus or Serena will be in the US Open Finals. Serena just had a little Baby Girl and Venus was beat in the Semifinals by Sloane Stephens -- who is African-American. Stephens will be joined in the finals by Madison Keys - who is Bi-Racial (African-American and Caucasian).

So can we just say, this reply was totally not significant. Yes, we can....
