Whoopi Goldberg Clashes with Guest Over America’s Progress on Race: ‘They’re Lynching People’

Whoopi Goldberg had a spirited conversation with NBC Sports broadcaster Michele Tafoya about how much progress America has actually made in moving past racial issues.

Tafoya, The View’s latest guest host, was on the panel Tuesday as the show talked about the Virginia gubernatorial race between Glenn Youngkin and Terry McAuliffe. The show especially focused on how critical race theory has become a wedge issue overshadowing the contest as the race narrows.

Goldberg called for people to more forcefully push back on the idea that critical race theory — which examines the intersection between racism and American law — is taught to children instead of college students. Joy Behar followed up by calling the entire uproar “culture war BS,” but Tafoya interjected to dispute that characterization.
