“There would be no me without women like Nina [Simone],” Venus Williams tells Paper. “She broke so many barriers; she opened so many doors and sacrificed so much.”
“This moment is so important because her influence persists to this day, and her brilliance lives on and really transcends time and culture,” @venuswilliams says of the historic singer and civil rights activist. “Her legacy really has to be solidified and made permanent and everlasting.” Venus Williams and Adam Pendleton talk more about the importance of preserving our past for future generations.
