Thanks to her controversial comments about the Holocaust, ‘The View’ moderator Whoopi Goldberg has many changing their views on her amid provoked outrage for repeatedly asserting it wasn’t “about race.”
Stated during a segment of the talk show Monday (January 31), Goldberg and co. were addressing how a number of American schools are attempting to remove some of the nation’s more problematic history moments from curricula.
When she referenced the Holocaust, however, Whoopi indicated the genocidal event – which saw an estimated 6 million Jews and 5 million others killed by Nazis – was more of a demonstration of inhumanity than race because it involved “two White groups of people.”
Needless to say, her commentary set off a firestorm of controversy. So much so, she took to Twitter Monday night to apologize.
