Episode description

A comic was published depicted Serena Williams as having a temper tantrum and people are decrying the comic as a racist caricature. But what exactly makes it racist? We are now even hearing that umpires may boycott Serena over her sexism claims after the US Open Final. Is this issue really about gender and race or is it about someone breaking the rules and complaining about it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBynDg1TnQI&list=PLxQaod7tWvYIujAxNsDkb6iP-S9wTKS4W
