I'm interested in the movie as it is based on a true story that covers a span of time when I was a youngster through adulthood through the eyes of a black man and his family during Jim Crow and the civil rights movement and that black man worked at the WH.

The OP needs to get a grip, any time a new movie is being released there is a huge press push about it, all over nothing new other than the OP seems to be on a thinly veiled racist rant.
Do white people go off on racist rants when they promote their movies?

No?

Didn't think so.

Oprah didn't produce this film, she's one of the lead actors. There are 41 producers on this film including a NBA star, a Ukrainian-born billionaire and yes, Oprah in the mix. She did not have creative control on the storyline. I don't see you can critique a movie you haven't seen. It's based on historical events, well known historical events and people that are easy to cross-check.
