Why does she presume it's racism. She might just have looked cheap, fat and ugly.
yeah, poor oprah. poor, poor oprah.

i cannot imagine spending that kind of money on a purse. a purse! but then, i don't get people crazy about coach purses. i bought a purse on sale. paid 10 dollars. holds my stuff as well as something that costs hundreds, or thousands.

racism is still very much an issue..

but i feel a lot more empathy for people getting stopped and frisked because of what they look like, sentenced differently because of their race.
but oprah trying to say she experienced it, because she wasn't able to look at a very expensive purse....yeah, i'm trying. i do recall a woman in the u.k. who put up a sign at her restaurant, warning people the place was owned by a black woman. she'd had many patrons walk in, only to see her, say they were in the wrong place and leave.
