Prince William’s misreported comments on the events in Ukraine have been clarified, but he's not the first to muse on what it means to see war unfold in Europe.
. Host Trevor Noah didn’t sugarcoat his sentiments at all, noting, “I was shocked to see how many reporters, around the world, by the way, seem to think it’s more of a tragedy when white people have to flee their countries because, I guess, what… the darkies were built for it?”
There absolutely should be empathy for what Ukraine is experiencing, but that same energy should also be directed at war in general, no matter where in the world it happens. Prince William’s misreported comments struck a nerve in the press, and though he didn’t say exactly what he was accused of, it’s a wake-up call that the Western world has a selective awareness of how war affects humanity.
