lol @ giving back to the ghettos of america by putting black men through college. He didn't ask her about black men needing financial aid. he asked about the ghettos. tons of people of all colors need assistance. just because someone received assistance from oprah, does not mean she gave back to the ghetto.
but then again, where did she get the 500 african american men from to put in college?
well if she's handpicking them out of the ghettos then she's actually taking the best and brightest hood stars off the block. she's giving to the individual, but HURTING the ghetto. how does that help the ghetto? -
Lol @ trying to downplay 500 black men in college..
The long term effects from that alone speaks volumes even if only 40% of those black men become successful..dominoe effect -
? should be happy she gave anything to be honest.
-
stoppit Ted..
basically what she did was the equivalent to a white person sayin "im not racist.. i have two black friends."
foh -
^ Damn! If you factor in the girls school in Africa and the other ? she's done plus making sure Obama gets elected, one would think that she's actually trying to make a real effort in bring up the Black Race.
Imagine that. -

its a great and noble thing. no doubt. she's stepping up in ways that many celebs are not. she's not obligated to do any of that stuff. but she didn't really answer the question. -
If you say so bruh..

College is expensive and she gave out 500 free rides to folks that earned it..cant knock that at all..

It doesn't matter, if their coming from the ghetto, Their coming from the same place he wants her to give back to, and no one is going to help you, if you ain't helping yourself.
maybe those 500 men were getting top marks in high school and their SAT scores, and they just couldn't afford to go to college either they're parents couldn't pay for them, they don't have a scholarship or they wasn't making much at work, so by the blessings of Oprah they were able to go to college.
And the ? shouldn't be asking Orpah as if she's gonna swoop down in the hood like Rick Ross or Trae the Truth and give them 50 k out of her pockets.
The ghetto is already hurt. Successful people come out of the hood everyday, sometimes there's no excuse. -

i'm not knocking it. i'm already paying into 1 college education. i've paid for myself. so that makes 2. and based on income level, i'd say i'm giving back to the 'burbs. -

Probably a Killer Mike aliasI feel like oprah hates hip hop and poor people too. We embarrass her she is ashamed of us and our music. our music is hip hop, remember when kanye made the Bush statement that was like saying "hey bush is white". its beyond obvious. I challenge black artists to challenge black elitists. middle and upper class blacks that see "us" and urban music as a cancer they have to rid Black society of, I will continue to defend what I love. I love hip hop and since hip hop is people and not this bull!! industry that means I love u.
I will ride on oprah, bill o'riley' cosby or any one I feel would wipe hip hop off the earth 2morrow if they had the power to do so.
