In this episode, we explore the recent controversy surrounding comments made by Whoopi Goldberg on "The View" about the Holocaust, and what her comments reveal about the Sorting and Unsorting of people, as presented by Thomas Sowell in his 2018 book "Discrimination and Disparities."

We continue our conversation with Charles Love about the sometimes fraught and always interesting relationship between Black and Jews, which was recorded before the Whoopi Goldberg controversy.
