Actress Raven-Symone Responds to Critics with Candid Facebook Post
By: Caryn Robbins Oct. 28, 2014
On the October 5th episode of OWN's OPRAH WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Oprah Winfrey sat down with actress Raven-Symoné for a candid conversation about her infamous Tweet in support of gay marriage. The "That's So Raven" star, now all grown-up, spoke candidly about her own sexuality and what it was like being in the public eye for so long as a child actress, beginning with "The Cosby Show."
I don't take offense to those that are mad at my personal opinion of myself. Like before, I'm glad there are conversations happening. Our generation tends to stay comfortable ,at times, with issues and topics that need to be addressed.
QUESTION: If we are taught not to repeat history by learning it. Why do we continue to repeat? We must not be learning it correctly.
What does irritate me is the bulling tone towards myself and other opinions in the blog. Keep your disrespectful, mean, hurtful, words in a diary for yourself. Personal attacking is not needed, and no matter what race, nationality, culture, or womb you came out of; strive for respect. Strive to be virtuous, so the conversation can lead to great things, other things.
Our ancestors of all races had the courage to stand up for what they believed in no matter what the fight. Back then I hope the motto wasn't..."the more haters the better"
We have reached a standstill in our progression as Humans. Let's have a floor of RESPECT, KINDNESS, OPENMINDED-nESS. Showing your disagreement with my personal comments by using language you were not allowed to use as a child is just.
My momma reads this, and so do others. ?#bully?
