Europe's "Racist" Refugee Policy
Is it human nature to prioritize people who look like you? Or is it just bigotry plain and simple? (Episode 89: Part II)
Published on: Mar 4, 2022  

In Part 2 of our conversation with New York Times Magazine contributing writer Elisabeth Zerofsky, we ask whether Europeans have a racism problem when it comes to refugees. Clearly, Europeans are much more enthusiastic about Ukrainian refugees than they were about Syrian or Afghan ones. Is it about whiteness, or is something else going on here? Can such double standards ever be justified?

In case you missed it, Part 1 of our conversation is available here.
