Young Thug reacts to racism against African Students on Ukraine Border.
While Ukraine facing invasion from Vladimir Putin led Russia, Students from different countries are trying to leave the Country. Thousands of students are stuck at the borders, and several footages are coming in which shows that officials are being partial and stopping the African Students to take the boarding trains.
“We’ve been chased back, we’ve been hit with police armed with sticks,” said a Nigerian man trying to get into Poland. The clips of the situation went viral on social media and also caught the attention of Young Thug, who’s now offering to help.
