Is it a requirement of being a celebrity that they have to speak out against everything they have a problem with in the world? Everyone, even people with the money and resources of Oprah has to pick and choose their battles. Why don't you write her and suggest it? Better yet, YOU speak out against it. You do not need to be rich and famous to fight injustice.

Well that's an easy one they are all wearing Butkhas and she cant tell if they are black!
Take a geek ate her audience, how many whites do you count?
how many blacks does she invite to promote as wonders of the world/.
Don't get me wrong she has done a lot of good deeds for Africans and African Americans But they are mainly for the ego of Oprah! She never invites anyone back she cant manipulate to her way of thinking. Or that it doesn't make her look good
Over rated color TV

I saw a show last year about it. She also had a show about Islam that addressed the issue.
Here's the info from the woman from Iraq:
"What is it like being a 30-year-old living in a war zone? Sabah, a writer living in Baghdad, has lived through three wars and the death of her father and brother under Saddam Hussein's regime. She says the situation for women in Iraq has never been worse than it is now.
"I mean, welcome to the real world," she says. "For me, as an Iraqi woman, I don't feel safe. Anyone can attack me. Anyone can rape me. Anyone can even kill me, you know? We are full of fear. Iraqi women are losing their freedom instead of gaining freedom, because there is a lack of security. Now we're supposed to be free. But now we are more afraid."
Most Iraqi people are living in misery, and Sabah says when her life became unbearable, she turned to Valium for escape. In Iraq, Valium is sold without a prescription and costs only 20 cents a bottle. Sabah says the constant state of fear is driving more and more women to the highly addictive drug."

Because that would mean she would have to speak out against Islam. She'd probably just get censored or get death threats.

Because liberals are hypocrites. They claim to defend woman's rights but they excuse the way that the Muslims treat women because we must respect their religion. Well I got news for you, either you respect the rights of women, or you don't.

because she's working on other things?
sorry she doesn't do what you want her to do when you want her to do it?
some people seem to think that not speaking out against something is the same as supporting it?
do any of you actually listen to what you say?
why aren't you speaking about against the armenian genocide? you support the genocide, don't you? (see how retarded that logic is?)

Because Oprah doesn't live there and it's none of her business.
