Whoopi Goldberg urges the British Royal Family to apologize for its past involvement in slavery.
During her talk show, The View, Goldberg said, “We cannot ignore the fact that Britain ran roughshod over India for years… Let us not forget, when we talk about what needs to happen, all the folks that need to apologize.”
She said, “Listen, this is not new. I suspect Charles, when he was in Barbados [in 2021], had some idea because he went on and apologized as he was releasing the hold that Britain has. So perhaps somebody is listening, and it’s the new group of folks – I don’t know if it’s Charles, William, but one of them is supposed to be the person.”
Goldberg‘s demands come after Prince William and Kate Middleton‘s “charm offensive“ visit to Jamaica, where Prince William referred to the slave trade as “abhorrent“ and expressed “profound sorrow,” but did not apologize for the role his ancestors played in it.
