The actress Whoopi Goldberg has apologized for saying the Holocaust was not about race
NEW YORK -- The actress Whoopi Goldberg has apologized for saying the Holocaust was not about race, comments that caused a backlash.
She made the initial comments on ABC's ‘’The View"’ program on Monday morning. Her apology came in a tweet hours later.
“On today's show, I said the Holocaust 'is not about race, but about man's inhumanity to man.' I should have said it is about both. As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, 'The Holocaust was about the Nazi's systematic annihilation of the Jewish people — who they deemed to be an inferior race.' I stand corrected," Goldberg said.
"The Jewish people around the world have always had my support and that will never waiver. I'm sorry for the hurt I have caused. Written with my sincerest apologies, Whoopi Goldberg," she said.
