And I tried to do a deep dive into Whoopi Gold's past comments in 2023 when this Boston MLK statue was erected.
And I say erected, I guess it's a statue, an art piece, art installation that was supposed to honor
MLK and Coretta Scott.
And, you know, this isn't how I would honor someone.
I guess people were saying that it looked like male genitalia.
I would say...
That or just a large turd, maybe, you know, and I don't know how I don't know what this does to honor them.
But members of the Scott family came out and said that this was a masturbatory homage to their family.
And I'm just going to read you a an excerpt from this.
By now, I'm sure you've seen it.
The new Boston sculpture honoring Dr. Martin Luther King and his wife, Coretta Scott King, looks more like a pair of hands hugging a beefy penis than a special moment shared by the iconic couple.
Created by the organization Embrace Boston, the sculpture has inspired mad jokes on Twitter, and rightly so.
But for my family, it's rather insulting.
You see, Coretta was my first cousin, my grandfather's niece, and the daughter of my great uncle Obadiah Scott.
So...
Obviously, the King family, the Scott family, they think that this is disgusting, which it is.
And again, I tried looking up to see what Whoopi Goldberg had to say about this.
Surely she was outraged as well.
She must have seen the resemblance to a penis.
Or did she keep her mouth shut because that was MLK and this is Donald Trump?
