'The View' host Whoopi Goldberg claims Holocaust wasn’t about race: ‘These are two White groups’
Goldberg criticized as historically illiterate

By Brian Flood | Fox News

ABC’s "The View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg declared the Holocaust was "not about race" despite the systematic killing of an estimated six million Jews, leading to sharp criticism of the outspoken liberal.

The daytime gabfest was in the midst of a conversation about a Tennessee school district voting to remove a Pulitzer Prize winning graphic novel about the Holocaust from its curriculum due to "inappropriate language" and an illustration of a nude woman. "Maus" by Art Spiegelman tells the story of his Jewish parents living in 1940s Poland and depicts him interviewing his father about his experiences as a Holocaust survivor.

Ana Navarro mentioned a Florida bill that could prevent any conversation in schools that makes students feel uncomfortable race or gender, prompting Sunny Hostin to ponder if teaching students about topics like the Holocaust could eventually be prohibited.

"The Holocaust isn’t about race," Goldberg said as her co-hosts appeared stunned.

"No, it’s not about race," Goldberg continued.

Joy Behar said, "Well, they considered Jews a different race."

"It’s not about race," Goldberg reiterated.

"What is it about?" Behar asked.

"It’s about man’s inhumanity to man, that’s what it’s about," Goldberg said. 

"But it’s about a White supremacist going after Jews and Gypsies," Navarro said as Goldberg attempted to speak over her.

"But these are two White groups of people," Goldberg said as her colleagues disagreed.

Sounds like Whoopi may be a bit racist herself.

How Fat is she?

Sounds like Whoopi may be a bit racist herself.

She is expressing the intellectual fruits of CRT, which is essential Black Supremacy.

She really could care less about the Holocaust, because nobody involved is black.

[Kamaji]

She's lying because she's an anti-semite who wants to deny equal rights to Jews.

[DCPatriot]

A Jew is a Caucasian.  A German is a Caucasian.

The Holocaust was a genocide where skin color had nothing to do with it.

What should be discussed is just how your typical German took part in it.

[Hoodat]

A Jew is a Caucasian.  A German is a Caucasian.

The National Socialists sure didn't see it that way.  But that's what happens when you put your nation's genetics policies in the hands of someone with a technical school diploma in agronomy.

It really astonishes me that "The View" hasn't been cancelled. What's even more amazing is that there are people who believe their b.s.

Oh...we misunderstood her...

There was no misunderstanding what you were saying, Ms. Goldberg.

[DefiantMassRINO]

The Japanese rape of Nanking, China, in 1937 was also not racial.

[Kamaji]

The Japanese rape of Nanking, China, in 1937 was also not racial.

Not by Ms. Goldberg's principles, it wasn't.

[Hoodat]

Great point.

There was no misunderstanding what you were saying, Ms. Goldberg.

Especially after she repeated it on Colbert's show.

'The View' invites ADL chief on after Whoopi Goldberg's Holocaust comments

Hopefully, the ADL chief has read this book:

Edith Stein and Companions: On the Way to Auschwitz

by Paul Hamans

On the same summer day in 1942, Saint Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (Edith Stein) and hundreds of other Catholic Jews were arrested in Holland by the occupying Nazis. One hundred thirteen of those taken into custody, several of them priests and nuns, perished at Auschwitz and other concentration camps. They were murdered in retaliation for the anti-Nazi pastoral letter written by the Dutch Catholic bishops.

While Saint Teresa Benedicta is the most famous member of this group, having been canonized by Pope John Paul II in 1998, all of them deserve the title of martyr, for they were killed not only because they were Jews but also because of the faith of the Church, which had compelled the Dutch bishops to protest the Nazi regime.


That's 113 Catholics murdered at Auschwitz, not based on their religion, but based on their ethnicity (i.e. race).

This is a kind of ignorant religious racism I have seen before. Many Blacks, including Whoopi, assume all Jews are White. In the same way they assume that all Mormons are White and all Catholics are White, etc. with other branches of Christianity as well, Lutheran, Episcopalian, et. al. This belief is based on pure ignorance.

Jews are considered a race because being Jewish is based mostly on genetics (born of a Jewish mother) except for converts. Judaism is a religion and a genetic race. For example, Cohenim (Jewish Priests) are expected to be able to cite an unbroken Jewish lineage. Judaism is a religion and a race. However like most religions, there are Jews of every race on Earth.

You can be sure the KKK and Nazis did not consider Jews or Gypsies to be White People. They considered Jewishness to be a genetic characteristic. And that attitude still exists even today.

To say that all Jews/Catholics/Mormons are all White, is a striking case of blind ignorance. But the bigger question is Why? Why would she even bring this up, and jump into that topic? What is Whoopi's interest in this?

I don't understand. There is no benefit for her. All Whoopi has done is to label herself ignorant at best, and an antisemite at worst.

By Emily Smith
February 1, 2022

There is growing fury inside ABC over Whoopi Goldberg’s controversial Holocaust claims, with insiders insisting that her apology isn’t enough and demanding that she be fired.

On Monday’s edition of “The View,” Goldberg, 66, alleged that the Holocaust was “not about race,” claiming Nazis and Jews were both white.

She doubled down on the claim on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on Monday after stating via Twitter, “I stand corrected.”

This is what happens when one makes stereotypical assumptions based on the color of another person's skin.  It is one of the biggest shortcomings that racists exhibit.

[GtHawk]

A Jew is a Caucasian.  A German is a Caucasian.

The Holocaust was a genocide where skin color had nothing to do with it.

What should be discussed is just how your typical German took part in it.

It was an atrocity, but it is inaccurate to say that 'TYPICAL' Germans took part in it, the Germans/Austrians that took part were atypical. It is like saying Antifa or BLM are typical Americans.
