For everyone who drove by that rundown and sometimes dangerous park on the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Compton Boulevard in the early '90s and wondered what happened to those two little girls who practiced tennis with their father, last week at the U.S. Open, we all found out.
Congratulations and thank you, Serena and Venus Williams, for reminding your hometown of Compton that with hard and diligent work, it's still OK to embrace hope and strive for a better day.
