If I could have witnessed an event in history I think it would’ve been in 2003 when Business Insider reported Oprah Winfrey had become the first female African American billionaire.
Why I chose this event? Girl Power, that’s why. Point blank period.
People have deemed Oprah to be the most influential woman in the world, not in the country, but in the world. Girl Power. She’s a media mogul, the first African American to own a large studio (Girl -Girl power) She has been ranked the greatest black philanthropist in American history. She. Some more Girl Power. Even though she obviously owns the bank! (super Girl Power) and has many, many, many more astounding accomplishments, Oprah’s goals have always been to inspire and motivate others. Madd Girl Power.
I bet there have been many naysayers, critics, some haters along her path. I would’ve loved to witness the look on the faces. Just so they’d know that what is for you, is for you, and what is intended for someone else, is intended for someone else. Just because people say so, or are not happy with themselves or anything else in this world, skepticism and criticism of others will not stop the success train if it is intended to be on the tracks.
Girl Power. If we women would unite and stand together with and for each other, what a wonderful world... this would be.
