Can we talk about the war in Ukraine and its complexities without being shut down or accused of minimising its horrors?
I think that is possible indeed – yet not that easy.
In my two-part series, I address six topics, six “Yes, and” talking points that I have personally found difficult (but important) to navigate.
In my first episode, I talked about NATO expansion, the extreme right in Ukraine, and what we have to know about how sanctions work.
In my second episode (so this one!), I talk about (1) racism in the media, (2) the overtness of racist and xenophobic immigration policies when it comes to accepting refugees, and (3) the difference between what-about-ism and saying, “this, too” when it comes to the war in Ukraine.
I also quickly address several types of comments I had received about my previous episode and, hopefully, add more value to this one by doing so.
