Watch this short interview with Oprah. The statement that a whole generation must die to end racism and the manner which she delivered it is pretty creepy. She knows her words carry a lot of weight and this comes across as very provocative.
She also states that the infamous calling of Obama a ‘liar’ by Rep. Joe Wilson on the Congressional floor was due to racism.
What a joke! Let’s just forget the fact that Obama’s is a well-proven liar and Rep. Wilson statement was quite accurate!
Oprah Winfrey made several racially-charged statements during a BBC interview Friday while promoting her recent film, “The Butler.”
The BBC’s Will Gompertz asked Winfrey if racism is still a contemporary issue.
“It’s gotten better,” she said. “Are there still places where people are terrorized because of the color of their skin, because of the color of their black skin? Yes. But there are laws that have allowed us to progress beyond what we saw in the Scottsboro [case] and beyond even the prejudice we see in ‘The Butler.’”
Gompertz asked Winfrey if she thought the problem of racism was solved.
“Of course, the problem is not solved,” the actress said. “As long as there are people who still, there’s a whole generation – I say this, you know, I said this, you know, for apartheid South Africa, I said this for my own, you know, community in the South – there are still generations of people, older people, who were born and bred and marinated in it, in that prejudice and racism, and they just have to die.”
If President Obama weren’t an African-American, Gompertz asked, would he be treated differently?
Winfrey mentioned the time when U.S. Rep. Joe Wilson, R-S.C., called Obama a liar while the president was delivering a speech to Congress.
“Just the level of disrespect,” she said. “When the senator yelled out, ‘You’re a liar.’ Remember that? Yeah, I think that there is a level of disrespect for the office that occurs, and that occurs in some cases, and maybe even many cases, because he’s African-American.”
If she thinks racists must die we need to start with her, Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson and her hero
Obama
I hate to beat a dead horse, but this insane woman needs to shut up and go away. I am sick and tired of racism, but these days it seems like much much more of it comes from her side than mine. She;s a BILLIONAIRE for cripe’s sakes! Obama was “elected” President! WHAT RACISM IS AT WORK HERE?!?! She is an idiot, a racist, and just needs to take her own advice.
U are just what she s talking about !!!!!!!!!!
Btw, these damn libturds need to be reminded that racism, is the belief that YOUR race is superior to all others. I think they mean bigoted. Either one is often committed by blacks as well as many other races. It is ALSO OK, to be proud to be Caucasian. If it is ok for them, no matter what it is, it is ok for our camp, too!
Uh, Harpo, whites are attacked ALL THE TIME just because the color of their skin, too, bitch! Kill, to achieve a state of no racism? Is this $&@! nuts!? Give me a damn break! Btw, Harpo, racism and bigotry will ALWAYS be around, no matter how much you hope and pray.
I am TERRIFIED of people like Oprah. She should be gone from this Earth and everyone like he in order to end racism in our Generation. She and eople like her perpetuate the racial hatred through he wilful ignorance of History. I say willful because the things she speaks of are not only not true they are willful malignments of the historical record.
Pretending that FICTIONAL Books and Movies are an actual part of the Historical record just boggles the minds of same and rationall people. The “History” Oprah refers to is about 90% made up. How many here know that the very first slave owner on record in the American Colonies was a Black Man? How many here know that Freed Slaves in America made up the majority of slave owners themselves and were documented as been slave BREEDERS which was abhorant to everyone else in the entire World ? White peoplle would travel to places like Jacarta to pick up slaves for sale by Africans who defeted tribes, took their pick of females and children as their SLAVES and sold the rest. That was THE most lucrative business in most places in Africa in those days. Capturing other blacks and selling them in to bondage. American whites constantly anf finally fought a bloody civil war to end slavery, Today’s subversives would have you believe it was folly and the defeted Democrat Slave Holders were the good goys in all that.
