Whoopi Goldberg called on the royal family to &#8220;apologize&#8221; for slavery amid Prince William and Kate Middleton&#8217;s trip to the Caribbean this week where they were met by protests calling for reparations for the crown&#8217;s &#8220;colonial past.&#8221;
During a panel discussion on &#8220;<a href="https://twitter.com/TheView/status/1506767751246802945?s=20&amp;t=LJIO2-rkhXvP0oRe9JPxOQ">The View</a>,&#8221; the co-hosts talked about the duke and duchess of Cambridge&#8217;s trip to Jamaica in which Sunny Hostin noted was being called &#8220;the charm offensive&#8221; following the British empire&#8217;s connection to enslavement, <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10651551/Whoopi-Goldberg-calls-royal-family-apologise-colonial-past.html">reported</a> the Daily Mail on Friday.
Hostin said Britain wasn&#8217;t the only country that needed to apologize as she called out the United States.
&#8220;We built this joint for free, that&#8217;s what I mean,&#8221; Hostin shared.
&#8220;The Brits rarely, especially the royals, rarely talk about their history of enslavement,&#8221; she added. &#8220;They rarely talk about how they got their wealth off the backs of black people.&#8221;

&#8220;We can not ignore the fact that Britain ran ramshod [sic] over India for years,&#8221; <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-dare-you-be-so-flippant-whoopi-goldberg-unloads-on-bill-maher-for-being-over-covid-19-paranoia">Goldberg</a> responded. &#8220;Let us not forget, when we talk about what needs to happen, all the folks that need to apologize.&#8221;
&#8220;Listen, this is not new,&#8221; she added. &#8220;And I suspect Charles, when he was in Barbados, had some idea because he went on and apologized as he was releasing the hold that Britain has.&#8221;
&#8220;So perhaps somebody&#8217;s is listening, and it&#8217;s the new group of folks,&#8221; Goldberg continued. &#8220;I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s Charles, but one of them.&#8221;
During a dinner at the official residence of the governor-general of Jamaica on Wednesday, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jamaicas-prime-minister-demands-independence-as-prince-william-apologizes-for-slavery-on-royal-tour">Prince William</a> repeated the words his father [Prince of Wales] said in Barbados last year when he talked about the slave trade as an &#8220;appalling atrocity&#8221; that &#8220;stains our history,&#8221; but didn&#8217;t specifically name the royal family&#8217;s part in it, <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-10651551/Whoopi-Goldberg-calls-royal-family-apologise-colonial-past.html">reported</a> the Daily Mail.
&#8220;I strongly agree with my father, the Prince of Wales, who said in Barbados last year that the appalling atrocity of slavery forever stains our history,&#8221; the duke shared.
&#8220;I want to express my profound sorrow,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Slavery was abhorrent. And it should never have happened. While the pain runs deep, Jamaica continues to forge its future with determination, courage and fortitude.&#8221;
&#8220;The strength and shared sense of purpose of the Jamaican people, represented in your flag and motto, celebrate an invincible spirit,&#8221; William continued.
During the royals trip, Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness made a declaration to be independent from Queen Elizabeth II&#8217;s rule, <a href="https://people.com/royals/kate-middleton-and-prince-william-step-out-for-their-first-full-day-in-jamaica/">reported</a> People magazine.
