Oprah Winfrey: “Do You Understand Now What That Means? Using Whiteness As a Weapon”

While discussing the viral incident of Amy Cooper in central park, Oprah Winfrey asked the group “do you understand now more clearly what that means? Using whiteness as a weapon?”

Breitbart reported that during an episode of her Apple TV show “How to be Antiracist” Oprah said “So I’m guessing you all saw the tape of Amy Cooper in Central Park calling 911 and reporting that an African American man is threatening her life. Everybody’s nodding? Good.”

And that brought to life, I think, this idea of using whiteness as a weapon.”

She continued “You know, a lot has been said about Amy Cooper, but I said that I think of her as a great teacher for us in this moment.”

“I think she happens to be here to show us in a way that just talking about it a lot of people might not have recognized whiteness as a weapon.”

The billionaire mogul added “So I want to ask this group, do you understand now more clearly what that means? Using whiteness as a weapon?”
