Actually, that what this really is all about -Oprah’s self interest and self promotion at the expense of others.
Oprah stirring up racial controversy to generate buzz to promote a new racially themed movie she has an interest in.
Whenever you really take a close look at the actions of the Race Baiters you eventually discover you are actually looking a Race Grifter who is exploiting racial sensitivity and racial division for their own personal gain.
These Race Grifters are usually self centered, narcissistic psychopaths.
They have no concern that their use race baiting for pursuit of personal gain, personal aggrandizement and personal power revives and gins up old hatreds and resentments that most all Americans have moved on from close to a generation ago.
They have even less concern that their self centered race baiting does damage to the relations between all of the rest of us members of society who, in the spirit of good will to all , sincerely just want to move forward with our lives and get along with our neighbors - regardless of their race or color of their skin.
The thing they are least concerned with is the profound damage they do with their exploitation of the Black community.
By keeping racial issues alive and at the forefront of the Black community and inflaming racial tensions they prevent members of the Black community from moving past racism and moving on with their lives.
Oprah is especially offensive in her claims of racial discrimination in America which ,incidentally, did not even occur in America. The alleged event (which may or may not have even happened, BTW) occurred in Switzerland on Oprah’s Five Star Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous European Vacation on a shopping spree in a tony, very upscale Swiss Hand Bag Boutique of the kind that carries $28,000 hand bags.
Poor put upon Oprah. It’s simply horrible to see a person so devastated and held back by racism and deprived of opportunity in such a racist country like Switzerland
Correction - it seems that that was actually a 28,000 Euro purse which at current exchange rates makes it more like a $35,000 purse.
