@@awesomegirl97 I married a mixed man. His father is white. His mother is moderately dark mulatto.

@7:33 - The mere fact that his mom was worried for his life means that she knows that it's more dangerous to be a black man. If it's really not as dangerous to be black as they try to gaslight us into believing, then she wouldn't be scared for her son at all.

Same in Iowa and Minnesota 😢 Oprah is frustrating me in this episode, she won't let Josh answer.

Love this full episodes keep them coming!!!!

Yeah!

Love this episode ! Again, this when someone ( Corporate America) set down and talk to oprah about her shows ! She had to change it, they didn't want the awareness to celebrated over national television! More than likely they told her that she could talk about anything else, but don't show the word how we treat African American men, period ..... give away card are something !

Original air date is not 2012. More like 1995.

Microaggressions is what she was describing.

This is all so true. I’ve gone through it all my life. Followed and watched. You have to psych yourself out to not crack.

It s cool to be black when you can change back in a week.

@@cathyortiz1280 i agree sister 🫱🏻‍🫲🏿im serious we are really sisters. We all are made from the same father. We are just different that's all. I have even white men who act timid and cross the street before they have to pass me on the side walk. Im tall yet easy on the eye,lol. Im very shy sobim just as timid as them but they are afraid of me. It makes no sense honestly do yall see black women snatching purses or grabbing people kidnapping like Jeffrey Dahmer. No. All black women aren't saints and vice-versa yet we get weird reactions from society. Im 45 and honestly the average black person will not bother you actually we couldn't wait for the opportunity to come to ur rescue not hurt u.🫱🏻‍🫲🏿💚

It's nice that she greeted her audience at the end of the show. We visited the view last year. We got to speak to Sunny at the end of the show but most were headed back stage.

Here come the excuses.

There was a profound message conveyed that was more about general human behavior than just about racism! The young black man turned white casually walking into a building elevator as a white man and NOT being stopped by the security guy, yet when he came back as himself (A black man) the guard IMMEDIATELY stopped him! However, in BOTH INSTANCES the security man was the SAME MAN and he ALSO was black!!!!!!

The Oprah Winfrey Show was top notch tv💯🎯

Baltimore and DC is very much the South…so, I’m not shocked that he ran into racism in those areas.

0:46. This episode alone is iconic✨. 39:41 😢. What actual year was this show aired? OWN?

I never saw this episode ! This is so deep.

I read the book. Very interesting and insightful. Still relevant in 2023...

Now the meaning of"walk in my shoes" has a general overview or perspective of one another in learning and educating each other back then.

This is so sad to watch. Human beings treating other human beings like they are suspects or inhuman. 😢😢
