Whoopi Goldberg has joined the chorus of people calling on the royal family to apologize for their colonial past, insisting that the crown cannot ‘ignore the fact that Britain ran roughshod over India for years’ - just one month after she was suspended from her ABC talk show The View for saying that the ‘Holocaust wasn’t racist’.
The 66-year-old Sister Act actress, who is based in New York City, was discussing the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s tour of the Caribbean during The View on Thursday when she hit out at the monarchy.
Whoopi, who has previously described her ‘close’ relationship with Prince Harry on the show, said that the modern royal family needs to apologize for its imperialist past and the British empire’s links to slavery, saying the crown ‘ran ram shod’ over India for years and needs to take responsibility for its colonial past.
The actress, who has long been a vocal supporter of Meghan Markle, has previously questioned whether the Queen was ‘in touch’ with royal issues after the Sussexes’ explosive Oprah interview. She also said watching the Duchess confess she ‘was not okay’ in the ITV documentary Harry and Meghan: An African Journey was ‘tough.’
Her comments come after Prince William, 39, delivered a heartfelt speech where he described Britain’s historic role in the slave trade as ‘abhorrent’ and a ‘stain on our history’ in a keynote speech alongside his wife at a state dinner on Wednesday night in Jamaica.
There is great need for an understanding of the real African heritage......................
She probably has some Southern blood she needs to apologize for slavery in the US
Whoopi still hasn’t apologized to America for being as ugly and dumb as a mud fence.
Her grandson married a black chick. What more do you want? Money, money, money!
When will whoopsi apologize for being a racist ?
Southern White blood that is
“Damn you for bringing us civilization!”
So Whoopie is identifying as an Indian now and being their spokesperson?
No amount of apologies on behalf of others for the sake of others will shut that Jew-hater up.
Wow... for someone who hasn’t yet apologized for her own racism and hate speech...
Whoopi should apologize for her present.
The “royal family” is an anachronism. People who are born into it or marry into it may not have financial worries or know physical deprivations, but they have no real freedom to live their lives and are often as miserable as caged zoo animals.
The Brits ran roughshod over North America.
The world was all empires at one point.
Has Whoopie said anything about the group of feral black kids that car jacked an old white woman’s car, dragging her and ripping her arm off, killing her? Was that racist?
Why does anybody give the slightest crap what any of the far Left hags on some daytime talk show think?
“Make it look like an accident, 007. A painful accident.”
