Rosa Parks had it easy. At least they let her on the bus for a little while. But these poor benighted African exchange students are “struggling to get on buses” and hightail it out of Ukraine. As a full-blown European ground war heats up, these Prodigal Negroes are left stranded in Ukraine because all of the refugee buses and trains already left for Poland — filled to the gills with Ukrainians.
