A picture is worth 1,000 words. The ladies of Willfully Courageous continue to stand by those young girls and hope R Kelly does feel attacked. It’s been 25-years too long! #MuteRKelly #RKellyInterview #gailking

[TheReconciliationCenter (BlackWomensBlueprint) @BlackWomensBP]

Abusers like R. Kelly know how to wage emotional warfare. They'll use tears to present themselves as victims, to garner public sympathy and make those they abuse feel responsible for their emotions.

This is manipulation. And we will not fall for it. #MuteRKelly #rkellyinterview

[Oprah Winfrey @Oprah]

Bravo @GayleKing for calm and and steady focus during #RKelly interview. Outstanding job!
Tell @CBSThisMorning we want to see the whole thing.
