Whoopi Goldberg is in hot water after saying the Holocaust “was not about race.” But it’s only the latest in a long line of bizarre and offensive statements.
she made about the Holocaust. During the show’s “Hot Topics” segment on Monday, the panel criticized the recent banning of Pulitzer Prize-winning graphic novel, which depicts the Holocaust, by a Tennessee school board supposedly due to its profanity and nudity.
This sort of blunder isn’t surprising, even from someone born just a decade after World War II ended. Like most historical flashpoints, our education system has done an insufficient job of teaching students about antisemitism and contextualizing the Holocaust beyond a generally tragic event. Despite the visibility of white supremacists in the Trump era, I know a few people who would be surprised to know that Jews are their No. 1 enemy.
