Oprah has done it again! She’s assembled the entire cast of “The Color Purple” for a special reunion show, which will air November 15th. More importantly, she took a moment to address an on going feud with Whoopi Goldberg that’s lasted more 20 years. Ironically, Whoopi is one of few Black women who have received an Academy Award and has dramatically influenced African-American culture, but she’s never sat down with Oprah. On this episode, Oprah shares how Whoopi came to her and asked about their alleged rift. It brought Oprah to tears. Check out this clip from the episode.
