An investigative blogger has accused Shaun King, a key figure in the Black Lives Matter movement, of misleading media icon Oprah Winfrey by pretending to be biracial in order to qualify for an âOprah scholarshipâ to historically black Morehouse College. The blogger says King is white and has been lying about his ethnicity for years.
