#DavidOyelowo pointed out that Emmett Till’s death was the precursor to the Montgomery Bus Boycott and the ask was about segregation. Bloody Sunday was the precursor to the Selma March and the ask was voting rights. The ask for George Floyd’s death is police reform. #OWNSpotlight https://t.co/ecseN9CQj4 — PolitiTweet.org

“There’s a way in which color blindness is offered to White Americans as a way to fight injustice but it actually promotes that injustice.” – Dr. Jennifer Eberhardt #OWNSpotlight https://t.co/J5aiMiK1xt — PolitiTweet.org

“The beauty of this moment is that we’re even discussing it and we’re having a real discussion about what it means. And even how people can have that privilege and be completely oblivious to being empowered by that privilege.” - @KeishaBottoms #OWNSpotlight https://t.co/Zn2x1RqvM9 — PolitiTweet.org

Oprah Winfrey @Oprah

White privilege is a difficult term to grasp for white people, especially for the middle class and working class folks, because the word privilege is associated with affluence. @nhannahjones breaks it down. #OWNSpotlight https://t.co/r40Gd3Wz45 — PolitiTweet.org

How can we move forward? So on part two of my #OWNSpotlight special, “Where Do We Go From Here?” we’ll be discussing what white privilege really is and what we want as a result of this moment (like Atlanta Mayor @KeishaBottoms is explaining here). — PolitiTweet.org

Oprah Winfrey @Oprah

We’re going through a reckoning right now & it’s not only about police violence against Black people, but the systemic racism that’s rooted in the soul of our country. For the first time it feels like people are waking up & recognizing that, but in this moment, will we do better? https://t.co/Maj7ux9UfQ — PolitiTweet.org

Thank you for joining me for pt 1 of our #OWNSpotlight special "Where Do We Go From Here?" There’s rightful focus on what's going on with the police in our communities but it’s a broader issue. We need systemic change. Join us tomorrow at 9|8c on @OWNTV as we talk about the asks. — PolitiTweet.org

“If your concern with the murder of Black people by police can be deterred or shifted because someone is taking a pair of jeans from a Target, then you’ve got to look at how much you cared about the murder of the Black people by the police to begin with."- @ava #OWNSpotlight https://t.co/3zSeEUrv3r — PolitiTweet.org
