Like the hostage taker in Colleyville, Texas, Halimi’s…
The Whoopi Goldberg controversy, in which she originally claimed that the Holocaust was not about racism, has a number of complexities. One of them surfaced on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert where she defended/apologized for her comments by explaining that Jews don’t suffer from racism, unlike Black people, because a Jewish person can walk down the street and go completely unnoticed as a Jew.
