Black leader to Oprah: Put up or shut up!

Black leader Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson is challenging Oprah Winfrey to put up or shut up.
Peterson, a columnist for WND and the president of the Brotherhood Organization of A New Destiny, or BOND, cites Winfrey’s recent “outrageous claim that blacks in America are still terrorized by whites because of their race.”
“Oprah Winfrey is sending a destructive and racist message to black youth,” said Peterson in a statement Tuesday.
“I’m calling on Oprah to back up her claims and give proof of blacks being terrorized by whites. She can’t – because it’s not happening.”
Winfrey made the remarks in an interview with the BBC last Friday on the subject of her movie “The Butler.”
The only way for racism to disappear, she said, would be for “older [white] people who were born, bred and marinated in prejudice and racism to die.”
Winfrey also alleged President Obama is the target of unprecedented criticism because “he’s African-American.”
Peterson said she should back up her claims or apologize.
“To the contrary, it’s black thugs who viciously attack and commit crimes against whites,” Peterson said. “Black criminals are also killing other blacks in cities like Chicago (Oprah’s hometown). Last year, the city had 500 black-on-black murders. When will Oprah talk about black racism and terror?
Peterson said successful blacks such as Winfrey, Obama and others “who race-bait are doing a disservice to the black community.”
“This type of racial demagoguery divides the races and encourages hatred and violence toward whites. It also shuts down honest and meaningful dialogue between the races,” Peterson said.
