“...”screwing over other people of color” in her fight against affirmative action.


This, of course, is the great myth. It is “people of color” vs “people of non-color”. We colored folks are all in this together.

Asians are only colored when it’s time for them to vote. When it comes to affirmative action, they’re no longer colored. It is racist for Asians to notice this.

Marie O’Brien’s parents met while they were teaching at Johns Hopkins. Her father is an aerospace PHD from Australia, and her mother was a Spanish instructor. She grew up in Smithtown Long Island, one of the swankiest ZIP codes in America, while her father worked for Grumman. She started to call herself Soledad O’Brien to advance her media career, she has no more street cred than Chelsea Clinton, who never cared about money.

Soledad is proud to be named after a prison.

Soledad is Spanish for "solitude". Her birth name is Maria del Soledad, "Mary, of Soletude", but she was known as Maria, and old adopted the Soledad moniker to advance her media career. It gave her a completely phony "third world" vibe. She a child of utter and unremitting privilege.

Indeed. My own orphaned Irish grandma was an indentured servant, to a family of wealthy Cherokee. My grandfather bought her at 16 for $100 and married her.

We all have a story, Solidad.

God-given Human Rights over Manmade Civil Rights, yet the Asian Americans are racist here? MLK is spinning in his grave.

She has been a bitter Leftist since day one on NBC.

Some folks wrote in saying she was vert attractive, and she melted down
furiously.
