Whoopi Goldberg has apologized for saying the Holocaust was not about race, and took to “The View” on to explain how she was educated that her comments on the show the day before were wrong

Greenblatt said that many people in the 21st century consider race to be simply about people of color. But Nazi leader Adolf Hitler considered Jews to be an inferior race, which he used to justify the killings.

Goldberg's apology via Twitter on Monday night, where she said she was sorry for the hurt that she caused, was welcomed by Jewish leaders in the U.S., and the chairman of Israel's national Holocaust memorial invited her for an educational visit. Goldberg’s “apology and clarification are important,” said Yad Vashem chairman Dani Dayan, who invited her to the World Holocaust Remembrance Center in Jerusalem to “learn more about the causes, events and aftermath of the Holocaust.” His statement said Goldberg’s original comments indicated “a fundamental misunderstanding of the nature of the Holocaust & antisemitism.”

On “The View” Monday, Goldberg had expressed surprise that some Tennessee school board members were uncomfortable about nudity in “Maus.” “I mean, it’s about the Holocaust, the killing of six million people, but that didn’t bother you?” she said."If you’re going to do this, then let’s be truthful about it. Because the Holocaust isn’t about race. No, it’s not about race.”Copyright AP - Associated Press

Whoopi is a 🤡

She should be fired!

How about you report on the biggest crime of our lifetime for once? Major insider finally exposed.

No he doesnt regret it. He just wants to keep his job at the trash view.

Shut up 💩

Tough. Many people have said 'stupid' things and later have apologized. Most (if not all) no longer have or can find jobs. Either accept an apology and drop the subject, or use it to 'cancel' the person and all their work, but do it equally for all
