In our first ever episode released as a podcast, we speak to Terrell Jermaine Starr - an independent journalist based in Kyiv, Ukraine covering the russo-Ukrainian War. He is the founder and host of the Black Diplomats podcast, where he covers geopolitical issues. Terrell is also a Nonresident Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council’s Eurasia Center and he writes for Rolling Stone. He previously worked at The Root and Foxtrot Alpha, a blog that focuses on the military, technology, and policy.
In this episode, we discuss Terrell's experiences of living in Ukraine as a black person, the problems of explaining white-on-white colonialism to Westerners, and Brittany Griner's release from the russian prison.
