Whoopi Goldberg weighs in on Liam Neeson race row

Whoopi Goldberg has weighed in on the Liam Neeson race row.

The actress spoke out about the backlash Liam has received following a recent controversial interview with The Independent, in which he said that he wanted to “kill a black b*****d” after he found out that a friend was raped.

Whoopi has defended the 66-year-old, as she spoke about the controversy on The View: “People walk around sometimes with rage, that’s what happens. Is he a bigot? No.”

“I’ve known him a pretty long time, I think I would have recognised, I’ve been around a lot of real bigots. I can say this man is not one,” she continued.

“You can’t be surprised that somebody whose loved one is attacked is angry and wants to go out and attack.”

The 63-year-old added that Liam “realised it was too dark” and “got himself help.”

Speaking about the backlash on Good Morning America earlier this week, the actor said: “It hurt me. I did seek help. I went to my priest and had two very good friends I spoke to.”
