"Ukraine emerging as a hub in the broader network of transnational white supremacy extremism, attracting foreign recruits from all over the world"

"white supremacist now have their own theater in which to learn combat—Ukraine" 🇺🇦
"In Ukraine, the Azov Battalion has recruited foreign fighters motivated by white supremacy and neo-Nazi beliefs, including many from the West, to join its ranks and receive training, indoctrination, and instruction in irregular warfare"

🇳🇬 John Ogbu and 🇺🇸 Signithia Fordham, both academics and anthropologists, developed the concept that Black Americans don't do well in school because they consider doing well in school as "acting white"
🧵 1/11
Here's a quick wiki on their backgrounds

It's no surprise these two would develop this theory
In 1986 they published the 'acting white' paper which says that since BAs are involuntary minorities they have developed an "oppositional collective or social identity" and "[t]hey oppose adopting appropriate academic attitudes and behaviors because they are considered "white"
