Whoopi Goldberg slammed for saying Holocaust not about race

The level of ignorance displayed by groups and individuals, such as Jonathan Greenblatt are absolutely astounding. The sheer arrogance that must be involved to misrepresent history.

Hitler was a NeoNazi, not a white supremacist. He believed the Aryan "race" was superior to all else.

The Holocaust wasn't about race. It was rooted in the Christian belief that Jews were inferior. Judaism is not a race, it's an ethnicity.

The crime here, is that people misrepresenting history to fit a personally believed narrative are damaging it, and doing a disservice to those who were actually involved in those events. What's worse, is that sites like annefrank.org actually lay out the intricacies of what happened during that time, and current day leaders in the community can't even be bothered to actually learn the history that they're trying to promote.
