More Oprahness

The woman accused of abusing pupils at Oprah Winfrey's South African school for girls goes to trial today, Tuesday.

She’s expected to plead not guilty to charges of indecent assault, assault and criminal injury.

South African authorities say six teenage students and a fellow dormitory matron were abused by the woman over four months.

The six girls will give evidence in a session closed to the public.

The girls are said to be "very scared and very, very emotional."

The trial is expected to run through August 1.

Oprah, who was a victim of child abuse herself, has promised an overhaul of the school and has apologized to parents.

      Perhaps Oprah would build a school for poor children here in the USA, instead of spending all this money on the richest African country.
      .
      O forgot where she came from. Even worst- she forgot about the places and people where she grew up.

      O and all the stupid celebs are so clueless.
      They could have helped orphanages abroud and inner cities children here.
      .
      They chose to spend millions on corrupt people in frican countries and they don't even live there to supervise of what is going on.
      .
      There are enough children here that need help.

      CNN just released the results from a new study. It says that 45% of African American women will never get married. Like Oprah & Condoleeza. Most of them still have kids, but a lot of them become single mothers. It's kind of sad actually. Black guys are just too busy flirting with the white hos.
      Out of white women, only 23% never get married.
      Things that make you go hmmmmm.

      If that's not enough, even the bridal magazines seem to think black women don’t get married. There’s an interesting study just done by a University of Missouri-Columbia researcher who found that African-American women are practically non-existent within the pages of bridal magazines.

      I can't stand Oprah. She spend a whole lot of money on an African school when she could have spent 3x as much money here as in the states. Her acuse: Well the kids here in the states asked for expensive sneakers and video units intead of good education and school uniforms. Fu*k you. There are lots, and lots of children here who could benefit from your millions. And you could use your millions to re-educate children on what is most important, sneakers or a good quality education. Stop pushing your black African agenda, Oprah, and start sticking to you true roots which is down home black African Ameicans.

      I help with my resources to the people in need where I live.
      I would NOT ignore the pain I see and book a flight to help people somewhere else.
      Will it look better on my resume had something "international" be there? yes.
      Is it morally worng? Yes.
      .
      Helping others is not about PR and having more people write about it. It is plain stupid to give money to corrupt people in Africa, not to be around to supervise and ignore the needs of people here.

      I think it's great what Oprah is trying to do over there with her girl's school. But I think she should be focusing on more important things. Certain parts of AMERICA are actually becoming like Africa. This is what cnn had to say today:
      "The AIDS epidemic among African-Americans in some parts of the United States is as severe as in parts of Africa, according to a report out Tuesday.
      "AIDS in America today is a black disease," says Phill Wilson, founder of the Black AIDS institute.
      "Left Behind - Black America: A Neglected Priority in the Global AIDS" is intended to raise awareness and remind the public that the "AIDS epidemic is not over in America, especially not in Black America," says the report, published by the Black AIDS Institute, an HIV/AIDS think tank focused exclusively on African-Americans.
      "AIDS in America today is a black disease," says Phill Wilson, founder and CEO of the institute and himself HIV-positive for 20 years. "2006 CDC data tell us that about half of the just over 1 million Americans living with HIV or AIDS are black."
      Although black people represent only about one in eight Americans, one in every two people living with HIV in the United States is black, the report notes. "

      Oprah has enough money to open a school in every state in the US - like Andrew Carnegie opened a public library in every city. She might have to admit white kids if she did that though, and she's way too racist for that.

      Oprah can't run a girls school, but she wants to tell us who to vote for. I'd rather have Stedman or Denzel, than Obama any day. If that's all were voting for is a black man whose clean and articulate!

      Racist Bit*h . 98% of her audience are White Females trying to show how open minded they are. If Fat Oprah tried to live on what comes from her precious black sisters she would be doing radio weather for 300 a week. Does she have to go to AFFYKA to find kids in need? There aren't any here? She gives a dollar and tells us 1000 times how great she is. Oprah you need to team up with that obamanations wife and start taking in laundry for work.

      Black people are dying off from AIDS here in America. Oprah is trying to keep the race alive and what better way than helping the root, i.e., Africa. O hasn't forgotten where she comes from. Ancestors baby.
