Only Oprah Winfrey can receive an honor and make her honor about the people, the world, equality, and convince everyone of the truth, which is, we are all more alike than we are different. During her eloquent speech, Oprah spoke on Women equality, sexual harassment, jim crow, unspoken Sheros, and she inspired everyone to look within. Ending the speech with one of the greatest motivators letting white men in power know, #TIMESUP No more abuse, harassment, and inequality for women, and for people of colour.
