5 things we learned from the Russian-Ukrainian War (1 year anniversary special).
Yesterday, February 24, marked the one year anniversary of Russia invading Ukraine.
There's so much we've learned in the past year since this war started. So much.
1) We've learned that the west in unison has condemned and supported economic sanctions against Russia for invading Ukraine, unlike the US when it invaded Iraq and Afghanistan.
2) We've learned that westerners and their racist double standards along with their imperialist and colonialist terrorist attitudes still exist for Black and Brown peoples around the world, but not for blue-eyed and blonde-haired Europeans.
3) We've learned that the western media also possesses this same racist double standard along with their imperialist and colonialist terrorist attitudes for Black and Brown peoples around the world.
4) We've learned that even the Ukrainians who were fleeing their own country, prevented others, specifically, African immigrants, from doing the same due to Euro racist and disparate treatment.
5) We've learned that the US has spent nearly $80 billion of taxpayer money supporting Ukraine, militarily, financially and in terms of humanitarian aid, but has provided Black and Brown nations with none of these aid packages when confronted by a colonialist or imperialist country.
