Kaye, you’re fastly becoming one of my new favorite people for 2018. I truly appreciate your thought provoking and thoughtful responses. I admire your passion and I do agree on finding pathways/solutions of healing and understanding…however, I don’t feel that black ppl placing hopes and aspirations in that of celebrities and billionaires is where those dreams lie.

Oprah had a chance to do for black children/girls in Chicago/US and she chose to denounce them as not worthy and instead built her school in South Africa…a school that has also been torn apart with sexual abuse and claims that Oprah only spoke up when it garnered national attention, even though she knew long before. Oprah never stood in support of Monique and chose not to fight for her and per Monique, actively along with Daniels…worked against her. Lastly, Seal also blasted Oprah in the press today for knowing all along what was happening with Weinstein and was complicit in his behavior.

‘You’ve been part of the problem for decades’: Seal slams Oprah for ‘ignoring rumors’ against Harvey Weinstein and says she’s an example of ‘sanctimonious Hollywood’ after her Golden Globes speech

  • The singer Seal lashed out at Oprah Winfrey following her inspirational Globes speech which focused on the plight of sex abuse victims
  • Seal accused the media maven of knowing about the rumors against Harvey Weinstein and ignoring them in an Instagram post
  • In the post he shared two images of Oprah with Weinstein and called her ‘part of the problem’ before closing with a hash-tag that read ‘sanctimonious Hollywood’

I know I’m prob repeating myself but I stand by my view that there is no comparison of poor black women being murdered, beaten and raped during Jim Crow or even the case in OK, to the cases that rich white hollywood women either chose or accepted out of fame and fortune…as black women we can’t continue to lift up groups and issues that are not solely about us, and denying the fact that in the end we continue to be left out (affirmative action was for women of color but white women/feminists were able to play victim and convinced black women they were all victims in need of help and voila’, they along with their rich white husbands teamed up to take it over)…also allow me to be clear, I have nothing agnst white women, just this con game that rich white women/feminist are playing…and my being problack does not mean I’m anti-white.

I also find it sad that we as black women fight harder to be equal to white women than we do for equality for our people as a whole…my gender will NEVER supercede my ethnicity nor my #BlackFirst fight for my people…as a black mother, giving my sons “the talk” is worse than any fear of gender equality…if black lives truly matter, then that should be our bigger fight. White women will never share the same burdens as we’ve had to endure because of racism, and no amount of fist pumping and pussy hat marching will change that…

Much Respect My Sister…

Charlie
