Does Oprah ONLY LOVE RICH WHITE SCHOOLS((and kids)) IN AMERICA?

According to tmz.com, It seems Oprah still has a soft spot for white kids. While her new South African school for girls grabbed headlines, Oprah has also been lending a helping hand to some ultra-white establishments. According to FOX News, Winfrey gave $1 million to Miss Porter's, an exclusive finishing school in Connecticut, where she sent her nieces. Annual tuition is $38,000, and graduates include Jackie Kennedy, the Vanderbilts and the Rockefellers. The talk show queen has also contributed to Chicago's Lake Shore Academy, whose student body is pretty much entirely white.


Hmmmm, this makes me think...I mean hey this is America and it's HER money on the one hand, but on the other aren't there ((any good)) predominately black or at least mixed schools that Oprah could send her nieces to? After donating to that school in South Africa which I thought was GREAT, I find it hard to believe such a donation couldn't be made to a school here!

Denver Police Make Arrest in Darrent Williams Murder



DENVER (AP) _ Police have arrested a 23-year-old man and plan to question him about the shooting death of Denver Broncos cornerback Darrent Williams. Police say Willie Clark was arrested for a parole violation after his name surfaced in the investigation. But police spokesman Sonny Jackson says Clark is not being called a suspect in the case. More than 50 people have been questioned since Williams was shot as he drove away from a New Year's Eve party at a nightclub in a stretch Hummer limousine.

First Black Mayor Found Dead....

Did y'all hear about this? Mayor-Elect Gerald Washington was found shot to death on Dec. 30 in a parking lot 11 days after being sworn into office. His gun was found by the body. He would've been the first black mayor in the Louisiana town of Westlake. The coroner and sheriff are calling it a suicide, but no suicide note was found and he was shot in the chest ((not head)) hmmmm. All this happened the day BEFORE he's supposed to take the office of mayor? Hmmmmm even though the town is about 80% white he won nearly 70% of the vote.

Many are beginning to say that this was murder and are accusing the police of a coverup...hmmmm well I ((KNOW)) that in Lousyana as well as MANY parts of the south..racism and prejudice run rampant...I will reserve judgement as this story develops and of COURSE i'll keep you all aware of developments....
