Serena Williams received criticism in the media after celebrating her first singles gold medal win by performing the "crip walk," a dance commonly performed by gang members. The controversial dance was made popular by The Crips gang in the 1970s in her hometown of Compton, California."What Serena did was akin to cracking a tasteless, X-rated joke inside a church," wrote another reporter for Fox Sports News. "Serena deserved to be criticized and she should've immediately apologized. Wimbledon isn't the place to break out a dance popularized by California Crip gang members. She knows it."
