Just like that! Michelle Obama, Spike Lee and another 5,000 people of color have disappeared from the US Open.

Amazing! The US open has been thrilling to watch, as this year the audience has been incredibly diverse. Serena’s last US open appearance, with Coco Gauff, Naomi Osaka and Francis Tiafoe’s first slam semi-final brought a new dimension to professional tennis as well as a raucous crowd. Today, two white guys, one Spanish and one Norwegian are vying in the finals for the trophy, unfortunately Tiafoe’s early exit ended the diversity.

Of course. All they care about is skin color.

“Of course. All they care about is skin color.”

That’s a fact.

Wait, Alcaraz isn’t brown enough?

If he were from Guatemala, he’d be authentic POC.

Is someone sitting there with a calculator on their phone, tapping out each black or latino face they see in the audience? Must’ve have gotten bored today.
Not each sport is going to attract an equal number of races.
That was never the intention. Specific sports can usually be traced back to specific cultures or nationalities. So what?

For diversity, I’d like to see vaccinated vs. unvaccinated.

Their obsession with skin color is counterproductive and tiresome.

Although they would deny it, they are the most racist of all. They are pathetic, small people. Think Junior High.

You can tell a big difference, between the crowds for NBA basketball, and NHL hockey, just to name two sports which appear to draw differing demographics from one another.

I hope it’s not racist to say I’ve observed that at sporting events..................

The only racism left is racism against white people.

Yep. So far NFL is the only sport that is "melting pot".
