I'm really interested to know more about how she's like Oprah. Can you expand more on that?

She’s a media figure that gets credit for a lot of things others were doing but she is the face for.

She’s doing work but she isn’t organizing.

She’s doing the work but not in a way you like? What work are you doing to improve your community?

She's being celebrated for being a significant activist IRL who isn't effective at all. It's Occupy Wall Street all over again where people get really mad when you actually start asking what the results of that action was.
