Africans and blacks in Ukraine

[Anonymous]

No black person in their right mind would go to the former USSR for more than a short trip. It’s very racist there. I am from there so I know

Most are students they go because they can get free or low cost high quality education, many are med students.

It's interesting how now it's okay to prioritize " citizens" for some of you.

Ukraine has a long and documented history of racism that doesn't change because Putin is being a jackass.

Any man between the age of 16 and 60 cannot legally leave the country
Those foreign students you posted pictures about earlier were men. They must do their duty and join the army and fight if need be

Some observations:

There's a black american in Ukraine who has been covering the invasion for The Root, CNN, etc. Terrell something? He's listed in other dcum threads. He is staying. He seems to have a lot of local friends who are fighting in the resistance. He hasn't discussed racism. He seems like a happy resident fully enmeshed in the local culture.

I did however notice CNN coverage of people fleeing Ukraine yesterday in cars and on foot. Despite the fact that men of a certain age aren't allowed to leave (at least that's what I heard), I saw a lot of men of color walking with suitcases in an effort to cross the border and get the heck out of dodge.

Here's what I know about the region--including Poland: it's very, very white. The US is far more colorful and diverse, and our racism pales in comparison to the overt white nationalist movement in Poland specifically.

I tend to agree with a PP that most non-whites in Ukraine are economic migrants without real connection with or loyalty to Ukraine. They're just looking for a safe place to live and work; this isn't their fight. Can't say I blame them.

As Michael Che said last night on SNL, it's weird to see a country invading a white country. Very unusual. I suspect many of the people of color fleeing Ukraine have BTDT in unstable countries and just want to find a better place to settle.

Women and children do not have to fight.

Given that a country is being attacked by a dominant power and millions of lives are in peril it’s idiotic to focus on some minor grievance. Go away.

Given that minor countries are attacked by major powers every day.why is this instance so special?

I wouldn't call preventing people fleet ng a war zone based n skin color a minor grievance.

I do believe it is against the law to firce a non citizen to fight for byiur country. Not to mention all the potential problems that could create.

You'll have to try again to justify this.

These are not minor grievances and if the people in power in my country don’t listen to me they can enjoy their next 4 years of trump.
Black people minor grievances. Who.
