U.S : OPRAH 2020 means hope.

Erin Jones just started a petition to America  Oprah 2020? We’re In ! Sign now

Dear friend, I just started a petition titled "Oprah 2020? We’re In!" In this current news cycle it’s not often we get to start our Monday’s on a high note. But after last night, there’s much to celebrate. A new day could indeed be on the horizon with a 2020 Presidential run for Oprah Winfrey. After being awarded the prestigious Cecil B. DeMille Award at the Golden Globe awards yesterday evening, she took the stage to make a powerful speech as the first Black woman to receive the honor. Her words shook us to the core as she addressed sexual harassment, racial injustice, and the attacks on freedom of the press1. She also paid homage to the courageous Recy Taylor2 and actor Sidney Poitier, acknowledging them as Black pioneers that have blazed the trail for her, so that she can now set afire the path for many more Black achievers to come. A new day could indeed be on the horizon with a 2020 Presidential run for Oprah Winfrey. At times like these, she spoke the words our leaders should be speaking -- and Oprah doesn’t just make speeches, she changes lives every day through her philanthropy. As a longtime advocate of female education, she has been dedicated to the development of a new generation of women leaders who, by virtue of their education and service, will lead the charge to transform themselves, their communities, and the larger world around them. Will you sign the petition and forward this email to make sure your voice is heard? Add your name here. It is this dedication and these acts of service and leadership that compel us to tip our hats to Oprah Winfrey and join the chorus of supporters for a 2020 candidacy. In her own words : “For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dare speak the truth to the power of those men. But their time is up.” She’s right, their time is up. 2020, here she comes. Thank you, Erin Jones 1 Oprah Made Black History At The Golden Globes, And Shut The Show Down With Her Speech  https://act.colorofchange.org/go/14293?t=13&akid=8861%2E1942551%2EiUfhda 2 Recy Taylor, Who Fought for Justice After a 1944 Rape, Dies at 97  https://act.colorofchange.org/go/14294?t=15&akid=8861%2E1942551%2EiUfhda   Sign now
