‘Do Not Take These for Granted’ – Serena Williams’ Husband Alexis Ohanian Seizes Crucial Moment to Teach Daughter Olympia the Power of Voting
Alexis Ohanian is raising the bar yet again for dad goals! The entrepreneur and proud father is known for his endless support and joy in nurturing his daughters’ curiosity. And recently, he took that dad pride to a new level, blending his love for fatherhood with a vital message on civic duty.
Serena Williams’ husband took to his Instagram to share a video revealing that he exercised his voting rights as election season unfolds in full swing in the United States. Ohanian can be seen in a black outfit with an ‘I Voted’ sticker imprinted on it. But what caught the attention was the invaluable lesson to his daughter Olympia, who seems to be expressing some critical thinking abilities at a young age.
Captioning the video, Ohanian wrote, “Olympia’s big question last night was about voting,” emphasizing the awareness of the kid despite her young age. Continuing further, he reflected upon the response which speaks volumes of the American electoral system. “I explained what a miraculous (YOUNG) experiment our republic is in the timeline of humanity (and we didn’t get it perfect from the start but we are always working to improve it – like fighting to make sure girls — especially Black girls like her — could vote) and how RARE a society with prolonged free and fair elections AND peaceful transitions of power is. Do not take these for granted,” the ‘Business Dad’ shared. This can also be seen as an attempt by Ohanian to motivate citizens to go and cast their voting rights.
