Whoopi Goldberg was photographed out and about in New York City on Wednesday, February 2, in images that you can see here. She was seen arriving at a film center wearing a button down shirt and oversized jacket. The jacket had various phrases on the back, including “Innocence” and “We are infinite.” This was the first time that Whoopi was seen out in public since ABC announced on Feb. 1 that she would be suspended from her role as co-host of The View for two weeks.

After the episode aired, the backlash immediately came pouring in, with viewers slamming Whoopi for her anti-Semitic comments. Whoopi took to Twitter that evening to apologize. “On today’s show, I said the Holocaust ‘is not about race but about man’s inhumanity to man,'” she wrote. “I should have said it is about both.
