Again, my point still stands. Those who do nothing have no leg to stand on.

Those who are actually creating effective solutions won't be in the public eye like these Black Women's #hashtag #protest #appealtocacs "movements" :heh:

I don't agree with her but she sounds like she is for the movement so why give her shyt? :manny:
She saying the movement needs a leader while she in a perfect position to do so...let's be honest these politicians don't really give a shyt but there is more of a chance of them working with Oprah than Al Sharpton...(not to mention I think Al is a fukkboy plant :pacspit: )

These politicians are snakes..they don't wanna piss of their supporters by working with someone like a Al Sharpton..Oprah is the safer choice for them.

Completely irrelevant...if she didn't care...she could have kept her mouth shut. Y'all still mad about her building in school in africa, like she is supposed to fund all of black america.

I am not going to talk about all the money she has given already but y'all sit there criticizing her about her money and how she uses when you have dr dre funding a school he didn't even go to instead of am hbcu. Kanye west acting a brand fool playing his faux black militant jig and the list goes on...

That's what I am talking about, black men feeling entitled to black female success but them not doing their part.
I wonder how many black men with money sitting on the sidelines right now.

Even the black lives matter movement was started by two black women. Black women do the ground work and black men are the mouthpiece.:scust:

yeah and look where the black lives matter movement achieved nothing besides looking like darn fools for the world to see . If you want something you have to take it , not beg

This isn't about male or female why are you turning this into what black females verses black males have done?
Because I see far more criticism being hurled at black american women for anything that they try to do than black men who do less than they.

I dont believe in protest neither but I personally belive on issues of police brutality men should take the reigns not women.

Great timing when a movie is coming out:stopitslime: o promote marching and leadership, especially when u have the power to change a whole lot of things

black celebrities and entertainers have money they don't have power or knowledge to actually change a whole lot of things . its 2015 and some of you actually think these entertainers can bring relevance to the black community and be builders . and looking towards them

Yup...yet you have not answered my question. What are black men doing and why haven't they taken the reigns on something that affects them more?

Hate black men then show fake support for their cause brehs

How exactly does she hate black men? She is with one(Stedman) and campaigned hard for Obama(a black man) and she is really close with Sidney Poitier(a black man).
