Goldberg is one of many Americans who has been wrongfully led to believe every issue needs to be looked at through the lens of race. If there’s not a black victim and a white oppressor, there’s no story.
Goldberg’s remark that the Holocaust – the systematic murder of six million European Jews – was “not about race” could stem from a lack of historical knowledge. After all, a 2020 poll revealed that a tenth of young Americans reported that they had never heard the term “Holocaust” before. But that likely isn’t the case for Goldberg.
Instead, Goldberg has embraced the perverse ideologies that have trickled out of Critical Race Theory which demands that every issue be looked at through the lens of race – specifically how black Americans have been oppressed by a system of white supremacy. So when the notion of the Holocaust was brought up, Goldberg didn’t know how to think about it.
