On Thursday, CNN’s Anderson Cooper interviewed Oprah Winfrey and Forest Whitaker, stars of Oscar-bait The Butler. During the interview, in which Cooper thoughtfully nodded as Winfrey and Whitaker race-baited, Oprah suggested Emmitt Till and Trayvon Martin were equivalent symbols, and that Americans were racist even if they didn’t have ill will toward black people. When Cooper cited polls showing that black Americans were upset about Trayvon Martin and whites thought too much had been made of the case, Oprah sighed, “Oh, I know, I know. That’s why I love the film in light of this discussion is because it brings context to this discussion. I mean, look at the film, beginning with that lynching scene and ending with walking into Obama’s office, look at what has happened in the span of one man’s lifetime.”

Cooper asked, “It’s amazing to me how people from different backgrounds see this.” He then talked about a juror “who did not understand, did not feel linked to Trayvon Martin, felt connected to George Zimmerman in a way, but not Trayvon Martin, she felt race was not part of this case at all.” Oprah couldn’t wait to jump in, blurting, “People don’t feel it’s race because people don’t call it race…A lot of people think if they think they’re not using the n-word themselves, they physically aren’t using the n-word themselves, and do not harbor ill will towards black people that it’s not racist. But to me it’s ridiculous to look at that case and not to think that race was involved.”

Just because
You don’t use the “N word”
You don’t harbor ill will to blacks
Neither you nor any of your family members have ever oppressed of exploited a Black person
You treat all people with respect and judge people by content of character and not the color of their skin.
Does not excuse you from being considered a racist.
In order to be not be considered a racist
You have admit to all black people you are a racist deep down ill conceived and carry the collective guilt of slavery and segregation simply because you are a non black American
You must hate yourself because of the above and constantly confess your guilt and remorse for the treatment of Blacks in America despite the fact that you have never participated in any negative behavior towards Blacks
Due to your latent racism you hold Black people back from success and conspire to keep them down whether you realize this or not.
Due to this latent racism, you must always defer to Blacks and provide them with preferential treatment, all the while apologizing for all the things you have never done to oppress Black people but are responsible for regardless.
You must constantly support Black people with entitlements and reparations to make up for the historical oppression of Blacks which neither you nor anyone you know have ever played any part in whatsoever.
Damned if you do & damned if you don’t. We just need to eliminate white people altogether because they are genetically defective.
hey oppie....if you're so concerned please give all your stinking ill begotten money to Africa charities....
“Screw her.”
Not in this lifetime.
I don’t want her,
you can have her
She’s too fat/black for me
Trouble? I thought the store with the handbag clerk was standing by their employee....
hey oppie....if you're so concerned please give all your stinking ill begotten money to Africa charities....
the sad, ironic truth is that if oprah was not black she would never had attained the success she had.
Oprah = massive scam artist.
Why is she even on the air any more ?
Audience needs to wake up and ignore her.

I don’t think I was a racist before Doprah started plugging her movie.
But I’m not so sure now. She seems to think I am. Maybe she’s right.
Yep, that pretty much covers it.
Some of the most racciss people I know are blakk
They discriminate based upon how black you are :
There are, in increasing color : mulattos ,lite black , black, heavy black , and "blues" (with a blue sheen).
She is still pushing her movie making this latest comment. Which might mean they need help selling The Butler to a public that is saturated with the black race industry hysteria.
Oprah is one of those people whose station in life is vastly disproportionate to her intellect, talent, or achievements. She is a mediocre actress who has made a living basically flapping her yapper and convincing low-brow people that she is some kind of savant and expert on everything.
You’re absolutely right. In the end, they all want to come runnin to Whitey. Like insects at a picnic.
I don’t even listen to this kind of crap any more - people who have to resort to the race card are impotent when it comes to rational, reasoned discussion, and just trying to get an advantage on others they can’t achieve through facts and logic by appealing to intimidation and guilt - they generally have nothing to say worth listening to....
Blacks are nullifying the progress of race relations in order to suck the victimhood teet.
And we keep baring it...
When I first read that forrest Whitaker was going to star in The Butler, I thought great a summer movie I can go see. As soon as I read that Oprah was his costar, I thought not so much. Now it is a guarantee that I will not see it
By the way - heard that Ben Shapiro is scheduled for C-Span2’s “InDepth” the first Sunday of next month - should be another good three hours.....
