Oprah Decries Americans’ Ignorance on Civil Rights, Laments ‘Millions’ of Blacks Lynched

August 1, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

When in fact:

“According to a Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute study, between 1882 and 1968, 3,446 blacks were lynched at the hands of whites.”

Oh, and 1,297 whites.

You’d think someone as rich as Oprah would be able to tell the difference between thousands and millions.
