NEW YORK—Li Tu peaked too soon. The 28-year-old, 186th-ranked Australian, who plays his tennis on the ATP Challenger Tour and had to qualify for the US Open, stunned third seed Carlos Alcaraz by taking the second set of their opening-round match on Tuesday. He also did something arguably more difficult: He upstaged the Spaniard, for roughly a set, with his grit and his shotmaking and his smile.

It never occurred to me that our “playground” was the living testimony of Black men, prisoners of the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola whom the state of Louisiana had re-enslaved in the convict leasing system.
