Here’s all the news you need to know:

Gabrielle Union recently opened up about a number of miscarriages she’s suffered over the years. During an appearance on Dr. Oz, the Being Mary Jane actress, who has tried IVF and natural pregnancy, revealed her infertility issues. “For three years, my body has been a prisoner of trying to get pregnant,” she explained. I’ve either been about to go into an IVF cycle, in the middle of an IVF cycle or coming out of an IVF cycle.” (MadameNoire)

Pieces from FX’s new hit series Pose will be collected to be archived in the National Museum of African American History and Culture. The Smithsonian staple is curating objects “related to LGBTQ+ history and experiences.” One of the show’s directors, Janet Mock, announced the news just a day before the series was picked up for a second season.

Serena Williams is heading to the Grand Slam singles finals for the 30th time in her career. After beating Julia Goerges in the 2018 Wimbledon semi-finals, the tennis champion will go head-to-head with Angelique Kerber. If she wins, it’ll be her 24th Grand Slam title. The match airs on Saturday, July 14. (Vibe)
