This opinion column published on MSNBC explores the idea that coverage of the Ukraine-Russia war is more sympathetic to the plight of civilians and refugees because for the most part we are viewing and hearing the stories of White Europeans.
In a short essay (500-750 words) please examine the idea that structural racism is present in much of the Western coverage of the war. Do you agree with the argument being made in this column? Disagree? Why?
