Oprah does it again!!
I'm sure you've already heard of Oprah's most recent philanthropy - a new $40 million leadership academy for girls in South Africa. More than enough has already been said, but I had to drop a comment or two. Many rich people have given in the past and continue to do so, but in my opinion all that has been a ripple in the water compared this. The indirect impact of this action cannot even be fathomed at this point. What surprises me is the fact that there are always critics out there who want to nitpick about anything - for instance, some ask why she's doing this in South Africa and not in US inner cities. My response to them is 'Get your own damn money and do with it as you please'.
I'm really curious to find out what drives Oprah. She continues to amaze us all with her deeds.
I can tell you one thing doesn’t drive Oprah! Ignorant Negros who embarrass themselves such as the later day blacks who didn’t get to see the struggle she and her agemates endured in the late fifties. Especially when now its acceptable to walk around calling each other negro this and bitch this….She won we over years ago when she camped in Amarillo Texas and fought off the lawsuit from those cattle rancher who were suing her yet we all knew their beef had mad cow…. She is a class act!
