Oprah Holds Race Seminar, Claims “Whiteness still gives you an advantage, no matter what”


1,261 views

It’s always baffling when these ultra-rich celebrities lecture average Americans on their “privilege.”

And the latest to join the fray on lessons of America’s racism is none other than Oprah Winfrey!

In her new Apple+ series, Oprah seeks to educate white America on the rampant racism that is present in our society by holding discussions with guests.

Her latest episode details how “whiteness” gives you all sorts of goodies and benefits!

Here’s the report from Fox News on Oprah’s latest show:

Oprah Winfrey discussed the advantages White Americans have over non-White communities in terms of reaching success on her new Apple TV+ series.

The media mogul had an in-depth discussion about climbing the ladder in corporate America on her new show “The Oprah Conversation.” Winfrey’s first episode featured an interview with former NFL player Emmanuel Acho. The episode’s title, “Uncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man: Part 1” is based on the former linebacker’s YouTube series and upcoming book of the same name.

Acho begins the episode with a statement to viewers, explaining that he believes in order for White people to understand systemic racism, it starts with having an understanding of the “full level of pain” Black citizens experience.

“I fervently believe that if the White person is your problem, only the White person can be your solution,” Acho said on-camera via The Washington Times.

Acho went on to say that, in America specifically, White people “run America.”

“CEOs, Fortune 500 companies, execs, ownership, they run America,” he continued. “Not an individual person, but collective White people.”

Winfrey echoed Acho’s comments by stating that while there are White Americans who “are not as powerful” as the system of White people as a whole, they are still at an advantage.

“No matter where they are on the rung or the ladder of success, they still have their Whiteness,” Winfrey said.

The television executive went on to define White privilege in her own terms.

“You still have your Whiteness,” she added. “That’s what the term ‘White privilege’ is. It means that Whiteness still gives you an advantage, no matter what,”

This is a woman who’s latest records show she’s worth around $2.6 billion!

And yet she has the audacity to point the finger at ordinary Americans, many whom are struggling in this economy due to the COVID pandemic.
