Oprah Winfrey spent 5 years and $40 million dollars on a school for impoverished girls in Johannesburg. Ms. Winfrey said she was tired of just writing checks, she wanted to feel close to them. Many say that the school is too lavish. The school has yoga rooms, beauty salons, and fireplaces in all 28 buildings. Oprah said, "These girls need to feel beautiful, they need to be told their beautiful." She went on to say, "Beauty inspires!" Note to readers: I agree! Reach out to our youth and tell them they are beautiful. Stop allowing these magazines and fake idols to dictate beauty. We see too few African-Americans on these covers!
