After admitting that it was a tragedy, Goldberg used the tragedy to call for reform in the police force across the country. “clearly it doesn’t matter if it’s a white policeman or black policeman. It is the problem with the policing itself.”

“I’m not suggesting that, so don’t write us and tell me what a racist I am,” She was quick to add. “I’m just asking is that what people have to see in order to wake up and realize this affects us all?”

Whoopi Goldberg, it’s not! This is NOT an issue for the police. This happens every day if you take away the uniforms. This is a HUMAN problem. Police reform is needed YES. However, you can’t stop people being humans so we must work with them to improve police operations. https://t.co/8MVi42SMuM

Ana Navarro Agrees

“How many more times are we going to have to see black youth beaten to death, beaten to the point of not being recognizable, and do it over and over again?” she questioned.

Children are taught it without realizing that that’s what they’re learning. So, the first thing that has to happen is people have to first look at people and see them for who they are, not for who they fear they are, but for who they actually are.”

“The good cops have to call out bad behavior, so we can get rid of the bad cops,” She went on. “And reteach police departments around the country how to police again.
