À propos de ce contenu audio

 The fascinating, “upfront and unapologetic” (Kirkus Reviews) memoir of Richard Williams, a businessman, tennis coach, subject of the major motion picture King Richard, and father to two of the greatest athletes and professional tennis champions of all time—Venus and Serena Williams.

Born into poverty in Shreveport, Louisiana in the 1940s, Richard Williams was blessed by a strong, caring mother who remained his lifelong hero, just as he became a hero to Venus and Serena. From the beginning of his life, Richard’s mother taught him to live by the principles of courage, confidence, commitment, faith, and love. He passed the same qualities on to his daughters, who grew up loving their father and valuing the lessons he taught them. “I still feel really close to my father,” says Serena. “We have a great relationship. There is an appreciation. There is a closeness because of what we’ve been through together, and a respect.”

A self-made man, Williams has walked a long, hard, exciting, and ultimately rewarding road during his life, surmounting many challenges to raise a loving family and two of the greatest tennis players who ever lived. Black and White is the extraordinary story of that journey and the indomitable spirit that made it all possible. Commerce Professionnels et universitaires Sports Tennis

Very interesting book, from the beginning till the 15th chapter, the book “sad to say” sounded as another black history book, it is a tragedy, and nothing will change the pain and injustice, but starting the 15th you can see all what the man has come up to, and all that anger how he transformed it into something bigger than him, especially how he planned every little thing and experienced himself to be ready to give it to his daughters.
It is a sad note in the end concerning the other daughter and his new life.
But I deeply respect the man and all that he has been through and all that he has accomplished

Very insightful as a parent
