Oprah Gets REAL About Police Murders, See What She Compares Them To

Posted On : September 24, 2016

Oprah Winfrey let her real views unleash when she was recently spotted outside of Washington D.C.’s new National Museum of African American History and Culture  and asked her thoughts about everything from the museum, to how she rates President Obama’s record.

In doing so, Oprah couldn’t help but bring up the thousands of Black people who have been unjustly slaughtered by police officers, even comparing them to Emmett Till’s 1955 murder- the 14 year old who was brutally beaten and shot in the head by two White men because he allegedly flirted with a White female cashier in Money, Mississipi.

The two men went to trial for Till’s murder and were found NOT GUILT OF ALL charges by the all-White male jury. So yeah, it’s clear to see why Oprah is comparing the thousands of Black people unjustly murdered by some trigger-happy police who have NO ramifications for their murderous actions, to that of Emmett Till.

About I Love Old School Music

We salute the incredible people and beautiful memories of that "old school". We’re not saying that every artist and every facet of the soul era was perfect, but the artists’ contributions to soul music and the old school memories of that particular time are PRICELESS.
