Building a Dream: The Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy aired on ABC on Feb. 26. It is a special on how Oprah Winfrey built a school for disadvantaged girls in South Africa after a five-year long effort.
I missed the show, but I would have liked to see it. I believe Winfrey is real in her giving, but she seems prejudiced when it comes to the male population.
Her talk show is geared toward women. She gives up millions and millions of dollars to benefit them in every way imaginable.
Why is it that she doesn’t do so much for little boys, too?
Why isn’t her school in Africa for disadvantaged girls as well as underprivileged boys?
In his article on Winfrey’s talk show episode about child slavery in Ghana, columnist Yao Fiagbeto, from Ghana, refers to Winfrey as “Queen of Benevolence.”
This she may very well be, but she needs to realize that boys will become men one day.
Winfrey the humanitarian should consider the boys of the world and of countries like Africa that are lacking in education and other fundamental areas of living whenever she goes off somewhere to genuinely give.
Maybe then it will be considered as giving fully.

I heard in recent news that Oprah is building a school just for boys. I also heard that alot of the parents are mad beacause they think the girl school is to strick. These girls aren't allowed to see their family members as much as they want. What do you think about that?
