It’s hard to believe all this negative attention Oprah is recieving for giving these children the hope for a brighter future and the education they need to fulfill their dreams. These children wander around day to day; hungry, sick with no medication, often no parents, schools are practically unheard of there: only dreamed about! It’s really just so sad to see the suffering on their faces; pain is all they know! I’m so proud of people like Oprah who have opened our eyes to these poverty stricken countries, when so many others would rather not talk about it and pretend it doesn’t exist…and not only that: she’s dedicated her life to changing theirs! On another note: Oprah was once one of those poor and broken little girls; look at her now..she never stopped dreaming! How could anyone ridicule her for her giving back to gracious children who are so appreciative and eager to learn? It’s pure ignorance! Children here have always had the opportunities of education and even the considered “low-class” family has the chance everyday to rise above what they have and work for a brighter, more secure future! Without people like “Mama Oprah” these children would have no hope what-so-ever for a brighter future! If people would really educate themselves on her and all she’s done they would come to realize she’s done so much here at home as well! Besides, it’s her money…she’s worked extremely hard her entire life to get to where she’s at today..she deserves every damn bit of what she’s got…and she can spend it however she desires! I love and admire her greatly for all she’s given back…and this is coming from a white girl! I can only hope that Oprah soon gets the admiration and support that she deserves from everyone..I’m very angered by the ignorance..it’s just rediculous! However, so proud to know Oprah’s strength and dedication to these children’s future will keep her moving forward; giving each and everyone of them the opportunity to dream!
