The creator of the New York Times’ controversial 1619 Project is injecting race into Russia’s invasion of Ukraine — claiming incessant media coverage of the war is tied to the skin color of the tyrannized Ukrainians.Nikole Hannah-Jones, 45, retweeted a post Sunday claiming the “supremacy around the media coverage of [the war] isn’t even subtle” while sharing a clip of an Al Jazeera report citing the “prosperous middle-class” in Ukraine who were desperately trying to board a train to escape the war-ravaged country.“What if I told you Europe is not a continent by definition, but a geopolitical fiction to separate it from Asia and so the alarm about a European, or civilized, or First World nation being invaded is a dog whistle to tell us we should care because they are like us,” Hannah-Jones tweeted Sunday to her 671,000 followers.
