Michelle Obama was interviewed by Oprah Winfrey who was on her Oprahs 2020 Vision: Your Life in Focus. tour that she is doing with Weight Watchers Reimagined.
In the interview, Michelle Obama laments that society does not see black women as beautiful. That is rich, considering she was on umpteen magazine covers.
Should we conclude that America is racist against Slovenian-Americans? Because Melania Trump has graced ZERO magazine covers since becoming First Lady. And she was literally a fashion model.
A quick Google search shows Michelle has been on the cover of:
Time
InStyle
Vogue
Ebony
Radar
Parade
Good Housekeeping
Health Today
Elle
Ladies Home Journal
Essence
T Magazine
Readers Digest
People
Prevention
Glamour
Variety
Vanity Fair
Redbook
Bazaar
AARP
And more!!!
Yet, Michelle believes that America does not make black women feel beautiful.
From The Hill:
People called me all kinds of things when I was campaigning for Barack, like it was a competition, she said. They called me un-American, and this stuff sticks with you. Men talked about the size of my butt. There are people who were telling me I was angry. That stuff hurts, and it makes you sort of wonder, what are people seeing? That stuff is there. And look, Im a black woman in America. And you know, were not always made to feel beautiful. So, theres still that baggage that we carry, and not everyone can relate to that.
It is amazing that Michelle Obama, a best-selling author in 2019, still sees America through the lens she does. She is widely admired throughout America, even being named the most admired woman in America in 2019, according to Gallup.

Book deals are just a way of money laundering. I can’t imagine that anyone actually read ‘her’ book.
I did not realize that it was a “RIGHT to be MADE to feel beautiful”. There is so much left to MLK’s dream, I guess.
