Tennis star, Naomi Osaka is a real one for this epic moment. Naomi, who is Haitian & Japanese, calls for Reparations for Haiti from France. If Naomi wasn't already one of my favorite tennis players and one of my favorite people, she'd sure be my favorite now! 👍🏽✊🏽🙏🏽🖤 This is not an act of "Wokeism" THIS is pure pride!
