EXCERPT:
GAUFF: “I mean, I think I've already stated my opinions in the past on how I feel about it, and yeah, I mean, I hope forward that we can have a lot more peace in our country and more kindness the way we speak to each other about different topics and things like that, but yeah, obviously I've been pretty vocal about how I felt, and yeah, I don't feel -- at this point, I feel a bit fatigued talking about it just because of the fact that it is hard also, I think being a black woman in this country and having to experience things even online and seeing the marginalized communities being affected and knowing that I can only really donate and speak out, and I try my best to do that. But yeah, I just hope that as time continues that we can reach a state where we're not currently in and we keep moving forward. I posted that video of Martin Luther King yesterday, and that was kind of saying that we must keep moving forward even though things may not be as calm as I would like it to be right now.”
