Whoopi Goldberg's 'View' co-hosts are mum, but this Holocaust survivor wants to talk

Social media is rallying to get an 88-year-old Holocaust survivor on "The View" after co-host Whoopi Goldberg was suspended from the show for her remarks on the genocide.

After Goldberg said on Monday's episode of "The View" that the Holocaust was "not about race," Lucy Lipiner — a Jewish author whose family fled Poland at the beginning of World War II — offered via Twitter to engage in a "meaningful conversation" with Goldberg on the daytime talk series.

On Tuesday, ABC News suspended Goldberg for two weeks and urged her "to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments" after she publicly apologized for them.
