‘The View’ co-host and actress Whoopi Goldberg has defended her controversial vision of the Holocaust, insisting the extermination of Jews by Nazi Germany was not “originally” about race.
Goldberg, who claims a distant Jewish ancestry herself, discussed the explosive topic in an interview with The Times, published Saturday. Originally designed to promote her new movie ‘Till,’ a film about black teenager Emmett Till, who was brutally lynched in 1955 over allegedly having whistled at a white woman, the interview eventually devolved into discussion of highly controversial topics.
