Bill Maher has slammed 'The View' host Whoopi Goldberg after she said America needs a separate black national anthem in order to 'reeducate people'.
Maher had previously hit out at the NFL two weeks ago after Alicia Keys performed Lift Every Voice and Sing - otherwise known as the black national anthem - at a Thursday night football game.
He warned that having separate anthems for different people was 'segregation' but 'under a different name'.
His comments sparked a debate on 'The View', with Goldberg saying she was all for having more than one national anthem because of how minorities are currently being treated in the country.
'I think because we have gone backwards a good 10-15 years, we're having to re-educate people,' she said.
But on Friday, 'Real Time' host Maher doubled down on his previous statements and slammed Goldberg for her claim that people need to be 'reeducated'
'Whoopi Goldberg said, quote, ''We're having to re-educate people'' Because nothing ever goes wrong when you start talking about re-education. Just ask Chairman Mao. Maybe we can set up some sort of camps,' he joked.
