In the latest episode of the "Behind The Table" podcast, Jedediah Bila tells Sunny Hostin how she learned to become comfortable discussing race during her time on "The View."

Bila, who co-hosted the Emmy Award-winning talk show in season 20, opened up on the special podcast series about how Hostin and moderator Whoopi Goldberg helped her have conversations about racial reckoning.

When a racial topic first arose on the show with her on the panel, Bila confided in Goldberg. As someone who considerers herself a conservative, she was concerned about saying something that could make viewers uncomfortable, and knew she was coming from a "place of privilege" as a white woman.

"I remember the first time that this came up on the show, going to Whoopi and saying, 'I don't want to speak about this in a way that's going to make anyone uncomfortable. I really want to be able to say my piece, but is this a space where that's possible?'"
