New York: WHOOPI Goldberg expressed regret Tuesday to say “The View” the day before that the race was not a factor in the Holocaust, said he was “very grateful” to get education on the topic.
“The view” brings Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the anti-defamation league and writer “can happen here,” to discuss why his words have hurt.
Greenblatt said “The View,” on the market for a new host after Meghan McCain’s last summer departure, had to consider hiring a Jewish woman to keep antisemitism problems at the forefront.
Goldberg apologized through Monday’s social media for his statement on the show that day, where he said the Holocaust was “not about race …
It’s about an inhuman person for other men”.
Panelists at this event have talked about the prohibition of the Tennessee school board from “Maus,” Graphic Graphic Novel Winner of the Pulitzer Prize about the Nazi Death Camp during World War II.
“I put aside,” Goldberg said at the opening of the show Tuesday.
“My words are angry so many people, who have never intended,” he said.
“I understand why now and for that I’m deep, very grateful because the information I get is very helpful and help me understand some different things.” He said that “important words and mine are no exception.
I regret my comments and, as I said, I stand with corrections and I stand with Jews as they know, because I always do it.” Greenblatt said that many people in the 21st century considering the race to be just about color people.
But the Nazi leader Adolf Hitler considered the Jews to become an inferior race, which he used to justify the murder.
Goldberg’s apology via Twitter on Monday night, where he said that he was sorry for the injuries he caused, welcomed by Jewish leaders at M.S., and the Chair of the Israeli National Holocaust Memorial invited him to study visits.
“Goldberg’s apology and clarification,” said Chairman Yad Vashem Dani Dayan, who invited him to the World Holocaust Memorial Center in Jerusalem to “learn more about the causes, events, and after the Holocaust.” His statement said Goldberg’s original comments showed “fundamental misunderstandings about the nature of the Holocaust & Antisemitism.” On “The View” on Monday, Goldberg had expressed a surprise that some members of the Tennessee School Board were uncomfortable about nudity in “Maus.” “I mean, this is about the Holocaust, the murder of six million people, but it doesn’t bother you?” she says.
“If you will do this, then let’s be honest about it.
Because the Holocaust is not about race.
No, this is not about race.” He continued the line even though the pushback of several panelists of his colleague.
