Racism Drove One Black Woman to Move to Russia

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]How is it that you have racial conflict here and you have racial conflict in another country? The bottom line is you >> did this man really this man really said does racism exist in m could can racism exist in multiple countries? I wonder if that's possible.

[00:00:20]I wonder I wonder if that's possible.

[00:00:23]How about this officer Tatum? If there is racism, uh, antilack racism that exists here and antilack racism that exists there, the bottom line would be people's feelings toward black people.

[00:00:36]How about that?

[00:00:46]Shout out to all of the subscribers and the members here on the channel. Don't forget to like the video. I am Reese Waters and I'm trouble. Now, you guys probably remember the videos that I recorded detailing what happened to the Huffman family as well as the Hair family when they flee America in order to get away from all this woke.

[00:01:12]>> Hi everyone. I'm here today to ask for any help and support that uh we can get for the Hoffman family. This is a family whose husband has just joined the Russian military and actually just recently he's been sent to the front lines to uh support in their military effort.

[00:01:35]>> Now, I wanted to respond, you know, cuz I'm always down to help the Huffmans. I I'm a big Felicity Huffman fan and William H. Macy. No, Desperate Housewives was my jam back in the day.

[00:01:49]Then I looked into it further.

[00:01:52]Anti-woke dad who fled with family to Russia, sent to war zone. Derek Huffman joined the military with hopes of becoming a Russian citizen. His wife said that he was duped into a combat role. An American father who moved to Russia to avoid LGBTQ indoctrination for his kids is being sent to the front line in Ukraine, despite being assured he would serve in a non-combat role. During the process of recording those videos, I happened to come across this and I'll be honest, my mind was blown.

[00:02:33]BLACK FOLKS GOING OUT THERE, TOO. Some were fleeing wokeness. Others said they were sick of racism. Dozens of Aussies have even applied. But for Westerners seeking a better life in Russia, things can backfire badly. It's been a year since President Vladimir Putin introduced his shared values visa scheme. The program is supposed to make the move easier. To be eligible, Putin said applicants must share traditional Russian spiritual and moral values. In May, the Kremlin revealed over,00 people had applied for it, including 33 Australians. While the country's state media outlets pump out puff pieces on anti-woke immigrants gushing over their new lives, they seldom tell the full story. Take Francine Villa for example, with the photo, Francine Villa detailed the attack on her in a social media post. She moved to Moscow from Miami in 2019 before Putin's new scheme was introduced, seeking to escape racism in the United States. Earlier this month, a black woman took to social media with a bloody face, saying she'd been attacked by bigoted neighbors. Today, they attacked me with their fist. She said, "I was with my child right in the face."

[00:03:50]Is it different to flee racism than it is to flee woke? Like, is it is it Is it really?

[00:04:01]Wow. Well, it's different in this regard. As much as I think describing America and and Texas, by the way, not just America, but Texas as too woke is absurd.

[00:04:18]Um, one thing we did see in the last video I posted, uh, they don't have any of those modern conveniences in Russia.

[00:04:26]So, that that would that would make some sense. Um, whereas fleeing America, fleeing America because of the racism is is a very sensible thing to do. It's it's your destination where we go off the rails. Uh it's it's thinking that Russia would be better in that in that regard.

[00:04:54]Huh?

[00:04:55]Have I seen some of the historical stuff?

[00:05:23]Okay. Okay. Okay. Russia, I I can ride with that. I I can definitely ride with that. Um, this doesn't look good, though. Th This doesn't look good. And And one one other way that it this was very different. Um, she actually has roots in Russia. Miss Villa was born in Russia to American parents and moved to the US as a child. In an interview with staterun RT a year after moving to Moscow, she said, "I feel free living in Russia because in Russia, no matter what time, I can walk outside and I'm safe."

[00:06:00]Uh that would be a far cry from um what I think the Huffman's left and didn't speak the language. He was going into the military and didn't speak the language. You know, that might make instruction difficult, like retreat, you know, that that might make that difficult. And then you had the the hair family over there that uh went all the way out to Russia without having a place to stay.

[00:06:27]I wouldn't go on spring break without having a place to stay. They went to Russia. So, it is a little bit different. However, the result was not.

[00:06:37]A black woman who moved from the US to Russia to escape discrimination and racism revealed on social media that the entire plan backfired on her in a disturbing way. Francine Villa was born in Russia but moved to the US with her family when she was a kid. In a heartbreaking video, Francine claims that both she and her baby were brutally attacked by racist neighbors in Moscow.

[00:06:58]She detailed the alleged assault on Instagram.

[00:07:05]>> Now, the fact that the attack occurred in her homeland is an extra painful blow. Villa had previously spoken about her move in the 2020 documentary back in the USSR, which aired on the Russian state media channel RT. Villa said that her greatgrandfather, George Tines, who hails from Virginia, worked as an agriculturalist after moving to the Soviet Union in the 1930s. Now, much of her family still lives there, but at a young age, she moved with her mother to the United States. It was there that she spent most of her life until experiencing what she described as a traumatizing experience with police.

[00:07:37]Villa explained in the documentary that she'd approached officers for help during an emergency, but that they turned on her instead, throwing her to the ground. It was then that she decided it was time to leave. That was back in 2019. Here is how she explained it.

[00:07:51]Quote, "Why did I make up my mind to move to Russia? I wanted to leave a country where I was facing discrimination. After a year living in Moscow, she told RT, quote, I feel free living in Russia because in Russia, no matter what time it is, I can walk outside and I'm safe." 5 years later, that proved to be a fantasy. Following the alleged attack, Villa took to Instagram with blood still on her face, saying a couple in her apartment building beat her with fists while she was with her 2-year-old and yelled racial slurs at her in Russian.

[00:08:25]>> In edited footage shared by Villa of the incident, the couple can be seen arguing with her in the hallway of her building, threatening to throw out her belongings while she was seemingly blocked from entering her own apartment.

[00:08:53]Now, she accuses her neighbors of changing the locks, cutting off the electricity, and even tossing her baby's stroller down the stairs. She also claims her child was left with bruises following the incident. In footage taken from a hospital, Villa can be seen weeping in distress in the aftermath of this alleged attack. She says she's filed complaints to the police that claims they aren't helping or responding.

[00:09:13]>> This ain't all the files. This is not all the files. Half these names are blacked out. This page right here look like UPN Friday night. AIN'T NOTHING BUT BLACK ON HERE. And I know exactly who it is. Why is he protected? Oh, cuz he donated all the TAX BREAKS HE GET. THAT WAS BASICALLY MY MONEY HE DONATED.

[00:09:32]WHERE'S MY PROTECTION? You already know.

[00:09:35]While the halves protect themselves and each other, they do nothing when your phone numbers, addresses, and bank accounts are being attacked. And you know who that helps? Data brokers that take all the information they can find on you and sell it without your knowledge.

[00:09:51]And creeps. It also it also helps creeps. We know this because the bill that would have required data brokers to get your consent before selling your information is circling the drain like this. Congress. This is where today's sponsor, Aura, comes in. Data brokers do have to remove your information if you tell them, but they make it as hard as possible. But Aura, does the hard work for you, constantly scanning the dark web and submitting optouts on your behalf. Give Aura a few weeks and you'll stop seeing your information on these sketchy sites when you search yourself.

[00:10:23]They also include features like dark web monitoring, fraud alerts, a VPN, and more. Aura is truly a great deal. If you want to be more private and protected online, you can go to my link or aura.comwaters.

A 2021 report by Amnesty International said violent racism was out of control in Russia. It said attacks, including killings, were reported with shocking regularity and that anyone who does not look typically Russian, was at risk.

[00:11:05]Even ethnic Russians who were seen as sympathizing with foreigners or ethnic minority groups, for example, fans of rap or reggae music, members of other youth subcultures, and campaigners against racism have also been targeted as they are perceived as unpatriotic or traitors. Now, first of all, uh that makes this very uniquely different, this particular scenario that neither in the case of the Huffmans or the Hairs did we hear about any sort of direct threats or or physical violence. One of the things that I try and always do in examples like this is to try and figure out whether there's an actual racial component. Right? I've I've talked about this before.

[00:11:49]um she accused them of being racist um or the attack of being racist is figuring out whether there's a racial component. I said this about Cincinnati.

[00:11:58]You know what happened in Cincinnati only here um I I can't tell if there is any racial component because I do not speak the language.

[00:12:11]What I can say though is in trying to find more information about this particular story, all of the accounts and reactions that I was seeing came from Black Maggas.

[00:12:28]It was all from Black Maggas who despite also not being able to speak a lick of Russian seem to find it as a way of of explaining away their black magnum. I I don't I don't know why they were so excited by a woman being attacked in Russia, but they were. How is it that you have racial conflict here and you have racial conflict in another country?

[00:12:58]The bottom line is you >> did this man really this man really said does racism exist in m could can racism exist in multiple countries? I wonder if that's possible.

[00:13:14]I wonder I wonder if that's possible.

[00:13:18]How about this officer Tatum? If there is racism, uh, antilack racism that exists here and antilack racism that exists there, the bottom line would be people's feelings toward black people.

[00:13:31]How about that?

[00:13:33]Might that be that? No. No. It's It's us. It's us individually, but but individual, but not you. A black woman who moved from the US to Russia to escape discrimination and racism revealed on social media that the entire plan backfired on her in a disturbing way. Francine Villa was born in Russia but moved to the US with her family when she was a kid. In a heartbreaking video, Francine claims that both she and her baby were brutally attacked by racist neighbors in Moscow. She detailed the alleged assault on Instagram. At a young age, she moved with her mother to the United States. It was there that she spent most of her life until experiencing what she described as a traumatizing experience with police.

[00:14:15]Villa explained in the documentary that she'd approached officers for help during an emergency, but that they turned on her instead, throwing her to the ground. It was then that she decided it was time to leave. That was back in 2019. Here is how she explained it.

[00:14:29]Quote, "Why did I make up my mind to move to Russia? I wanted to leave a country I was facing discrimination." In edited footage shared by Villa of the incident, the couple can be seen arguing with her in the hallway of her building, threatening to throw out her belongings while she was seemingly blocked from entering her own apartment. Now, she accuses her neighbors of changing the locks.

[00:14:48]>> No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. First, um now when you said um cuz she's a dummy, why would she move to Russia?

[00:14:54]She's a dummy. Um, I mean, I don't altogether disagree with that, but um, why would you say that?

[00:15:07]Why would you say that? Cuz of their feelings about black people or her as an individual.

[00:15:16]She's stupid for moving to Russia cuz how they feel about her personally?

[00:15:20]Would that make sense?

[00:15:24]Can't help yourself. You you can't help yourself. How is it that you have racial conflict here and you have racial conflict in another country? The bottom line is you I guarantee you I will be almost willing to put my life on it that she did not have a traumatic experience with police officers. She probably ran up to them while they on another call and she's cussing and screaming like ma'am ma'am we'll get you in a minute.

[00:15:43]No. And then they end up detaining and now this racial profile that she's going to move to Russia.

[00:15:48]>> Did you just put your life on it and you said I'mma put my life on it. guarantee and just make up a scenario.

[00:15:57]Neither one of us have any idea what happened. Only one of us is saying, "I guarantee you what happened." It was a Tuesday. It was a Tuesday. I guarantee you it was just at the dusk and she can What do you You just You pull that out of your MAGA hat.

[00:16:18]No, the one you sit on and put your life on it and is willing to say it with his chest with a black magga platform.

[00:16:27]That's what you get.

[00:16:28]>> Baby girl, you was safe in America. You over here crying in Russian like they going to help you. They the ones that beat you up. You need to cry in English where somebody from America can save you from yourself.

[00:16:42]>> Okay. Um I will give you this. She probably should be crying in English. I I I will I will give you that part. As far as the she did it to herself. Um, y'all feel real? There's a whole lot of confidence that there's no racism in in the black magnetum. And and by the way, if there's not, then it's just simple domestic violence.

[00:17:08]And that's so much fun now, isn't it?

[00:17:10]>> She was not following cultural norms.

[00:17:12]You don't. She was behaving like she got used to behave here. And in Russia, you don't just say, "Let me pass. Let me pass. This is my apartment. Let me pass." That is not how you talk to your neighbors in Russia.

[00:17:24]>> Okay. Um Oh, so we got somebody that speaks speaks Russian. Okay. Shout out to them. And wait, what is this again?

[00:17:31]Pop in Politics. Let me go check Let me go check out their Let me go check their page out.

[00:17:37]>> You don't go to the Jewish community and SAY, "OH, YOU KNOW WHAT? HE'S GONNA PUT YOU BACK IN THE HOLOCAUST. BUT YOU COME OVER to black people and literally say something as ridiculous. This person is going to put you back in chains AND THIS PERSON IS going to uh uh take away ALL YOUR RIGHTS AND THIS PERSON IS GOING TO DO THAT. WHEN THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THAT EVERYTHING THAT IS THAT WOULD ACTUALLY PUT ME IN SOME TYPE OF A BIND IS 400% HIGHER THAN IT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO.

[00:18:09]>> OKAY. OKAY. NO, I'm good. I'm good. No, I don't need the white lady to tell me that it wasn't racism when I got the four black ladies to tell me that there isn't racism all day, every day. So, I don't know why that was supposed to be helpful. It really It's It's a poor man's Cardier family is what it's given.

[00:18:33]Huh? Oh, Cardier family did this, too.

[00:18:36]She actually speaks Russian. will say she speaks Russian very well, actually.

[00:18:40]Not >> Wow. Now, this is funny, man. This is I I can't help but laugh. Like, >> uh, it's not really funny. It just, uh, from from the video, it does look like she's being harassed.

[00:18:51]>> Oh, she is.

[00:18:52]>> No, I I I was pretty sure that they were racist in Russia.

[00:18:56]>> Yep. This is actually funny. I can't help but laugh about a woman being assaulted. That's what you get. and and credit credit to other Cardier family member uh for for cleaning him up. I'm pretty sure uh that's exactly the same dude who talked about why firefighters should be white because in your mind when you think of firefighters they're white. So, SO WE KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS. I I would say most ethnosentric countries whereas most of everyone looks the same are somewhat racist. You're literally the outlier. They're going to treat you differently. Off rip.

[00:19:37]>> But did they say she left America because of racism?

[00:19:40]>> Discrimination.

[00:19:42]>> That's why it's funny. So funny is just like >> go to a place where there usually aren't a lot of black people. You think >> usually that there isn't straight up.

[00:19:51]Not even usually >> there aren't any black people. You think they're gonna be less racist where they don't usually see a demographic of people >> in another country? You know, you see how they did Britney Grinder.

[00:20:01]>> Not saying it was racism. She did have weed, but probably wasn't great for her.

[00:20:05]I don't know.

[00:20:06]>> Y'all heard that.

[00:20:09]This is where uh arguments collide right here. This is where arguments collide.

[00:20:14]Now, their whole point about um being in a society where people look generally the same um is uh is one that I agree with. It it applies to Russia. Guess where it also applies?

[00:20:30]It would also apply to rural homogeneous America now, wouldn't it? That same logic, that same logic would also apply to these tiny red jurisdictions that they love to use as examples of land voting. Yes, it would apply there, too.

[00:20:51]Now, uh I love the Britney Grinder of it all cuz there's no question there would be no shortage of content that they put out denying the the racial uh aspects or or anything having to do with LGBTQ or or anything like that with regards to Britney Griner. But now it helps make your point now, doesn't it?

[00:21:12]>> If y'all had to live in a different country, where would you go? If you had to pick a country as a black person that you think whom I could live a nice life here, where would you go? couldn't either Switzerland or that other country.

[00:21:23]>> No, it's ethnosentric there. You going to be like, it means that they're pretty much the same.

[00:21:27]>> It's a lot of rich people though.

[00:21:29]>> Yeah, but they're all white.

[00:21:30]>> I would go to uh Amsterdam.

[00:21:33]>> I think that's not a bad choice actually. Not going to lie. The the Netherlands or something.

[00:21:37]>> Somewhere in Europe maybe.

[00:21:38]>> I would say maybe Canada would be my first choice.

[00:21:40]>> Nah, >> really.

[00:21:42]>> It's just like you're not going to have a better life.

[00:21:44]>> It's cold in in it's Europe.

[00:21:46]>> You're not going to have a better life than what you have in America. And so the fact that she was so she was so committed to thinking America's racist to go to a different country and actually speak their language and now you're dealing with something you probably wouldn't deal with in America.

[00:21:58]They said they were going to turn off her electricity like >> that would not happen in America.

[00:22:02]>> You're getting the f out of here.

[00:22:04]>> Yeah, man. Uh this type of doesn't happen in America. I mean I don't understand why you would flee America.

[00:22:10]Go live in Russia.

[00:22:11]>> Seek of a better life.

[00:22:12]>> How do we know that she fleed America for sure? Because I've seen this on X and they were saying she left due to discrimination.

[00:22:20]>> So they were like this is a story that people followed.

[00:22:22]>> Yes.

[00:22:23]>> Wow.

[00:22:24]>> Don Lucray was posting about it.

[00:22:25]>> Dang.

[00:22:26]>> Look, black women who who left the US to escape de discrimination.

[00:22:29]>> I know. I seen that. That's why I was just wondering how did we know this though >> is beaten by racist neighbors and they turn off her electricity. Damn. Well, she on the way back.

[00:22:38]>> I've seen enough. Uh yeah, I'm I'm I'm I'm good on that. Um, I do uh I I do hope that things end up better for her and that we continue to get more updates from her. Huh. Oh, we do have an update.

[00:22:56]>> Friends with benefits cushions.

[00:23:11]Friends with benefits dating.

[00:23:21]First of all, ghosting.

[00:23:30]That's ghosting. Netflix and chill.

[00:23:33]>> Okay. I guess they got the electricity back on it, huh? Yeah, they got the they got the Yeah, she I think she you know she landed on her feet. That's good to see. That that is that is good to see.

[00:23:45]Um you know, we'll see how things work out for the Huffmans and the hairs. Uh by the way, don't use Netflix and chill in 2020. We don't we don't do that. Um any ma matter of fact, I think you can go ahead and throw most of that away except for uh friends with benefits is that that's timeless. that friends with benefits is timeless. You can go with that one. But the rest of them um and I'll be honest, I am I am perplexed by this entire story. I honestly say I I I am baffled. I have never had this level of agreement and and also equally disgusted with Black Manga. This is I don't even know what to do with this. Thank you guys so much for watching the video and I would like to wish you a happy Women's History Month.

[00:24:34]Shout out to all the women whose hard work makes this channel go.

[00:24:42]>> I ain't the one, baby.

[00:24:44]>> Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Uh-uh. No. Cuz you got you got Miss Ray doing the mods and you got Regina doing the research and your wife be doing the admin. You got nothing but women UP HERE. THIS THIS A WHOLE DEI OPERATION. I'M telling Trump. No. No.

[00:25:10]>> How do you interpret DEI?

[00:25:15]>> And I would also like to shout out all the women who show up and support the channel every single day. People like GG the Crochet Queen who sent me this. Love your channel. Here's a pic of me wearing the Whoa, y'all t-shirt. I love it.

[00:25:31]Excellent quality. It's in my weekly rotation. Be blessed and keep informing us in only the Reese way. You make me feel like a natural woman.

[00:25:47]I'm yours.

[00:25:49]I see you. GG. Now, I had a babysitter that like to crochet. I didn't know you was the queen, though. And she not going to take that well. She She is not going to take that well.

[00:25:59]>> I said, "What?" She said, "Yeah." I said, "No."

[00:26:02]>> People like Kale who sent me, "I took time out of my day to send you this quiet as it's kept. I hate taking pictures due to my big backed activities, but I wanted to show my support. I love your channel. Woman to woman."

[00:26:20]Kella, honestly, uh if it wasn't for Big Bath Activities, I wouldn't have no activities. That's honestly, that's that's what I put down. I I just had my physical and for activities I put big back. That's that's that's what I do there.

[00:26:37]>> Boy, that's it. That lovely.

[00:26:41]>> I enjoyed watching your who raised y'all segment so much. I just had to cop that merch. Keep bringing the truth and the funny to us 99% bottom feeders of the world. Also good to know that we have great taste in Bosot and Marley. Less up from Yolanda from Wakanda.

[00:26:59]Man, the best thing about being a woman is the ability to HAVE A LITTLE FUN FUN.

[00:27:10]OH, I'm sensing a theme with the women and the and the who raised y'all shirt.

[00:27:17]I'm also sensing a theme from you, Yolanda. What's that you smoking?

[00:27:22]I can smell it from here now. Hey, I used to be a backslider. I I used to be a backslider.

[00:27:29]And we got to show some love to Auntie Sugar who sent me her Who Raised Jaw mug and a face that can only be described as quintessential who raised Jaw. Like that is just that's the quintessential Who Raised Jaw look right there. Honestly, that look should be on a t-shirt.

[00:27:50]>> He's right. You know, to all of you, happy Women's History Month. We do this every single year, right? Put up posters with the elegant fonts. Pick the safe names, the ones who've been gone long enough that their anger doesn't make us uncomfortable anymore. We hand out the awards for Women's History Month. We hold the lunchands and act like we're doing someone a favor by granting them 31 days of recognition.

[00:28:20]as if history was ours to give away in the first place. And let's all take a moment because we just came out of Black History Month and it's bad enough that we've whitewashed history to the point where we have to go out of our way to recognize black people, but black people are what 12% of the population. Women are half 51% on a good day. And we have mansplained history to the point where we have to take a month to specifically acknowledge the contributions of half the population.

[00:29:00]>> This doesn't make a lick of sense.

[00:29:02]>> Even then, it's a lie. A comfortable, well packaged lie, but a lie nonetheless. We talk about women's history like it's a separate wing of the building, like a special interest project. We act like men built the foundation, laid the brick, and wired the electricity. And every once in a while, a woman walked in and hung a nice picture on the wall. That ain't how it went down. The bricks were held together by the labor we refused to pay for. The foundation was dug by women whose names we scrubbed off the blueprints.

[00:29:32]Every great man we worship in our textbooks was standing on the shoulders of a woman who was told to stay quiet so he could speak louder.

[00:29:41]We spent centuries taking their ideas and calling them discovery, taking their resilience and calling it duty, taking their silence and calling it consent.

[00:29:55]And now we want to be thanked for giving them a month for acknowledging that yes, actually they were here the whole time.

[00:30:04]If you want to honor history, stop treating it like a memorial service for something that's over. It's happening right now. It's in the room where she's being talked over. It's in the lab where she's doing the work while he's getting the funding. It's in the home where she's holding the world together while we take credit for the gravity.

[00:30:27]Don't give them a month. Give them the microphone.

[00:30:31]and then have the courage to sit down and listen to the history they're making while we're busy pretending we're the ones in charge of the clock.

[00:30:43]Now, we're going to talk about the ones who carried the signs, the ones who flew the planes, the ones who refused to get up from the seat, and we should. But keep in mind, history isn't just the woman in the oil painting or the black and white photograph.

[00:30:58]History is the woman who taught her neighbor to read in secret because the law said her mind was a dangerous thing.

[00:31:06]It's the mother who worked three jobs so her daughter wouldn't have to work one.

[00:31:10]It's the scientist whose name was left off the paper, the artist whose work was signed by her husband, and the millions of women whose history was simply survival.

[00:31:23]Because where would we be without it?

[00:31:27]They aren't just a contribution to the story. They are the story.

[00:31:34]Happy Women's History Month.

[00:31:36]When a man loves a woman, I don't know what happens then. That that's kind of been my problem.
