[lbo-talk] " Race " in Russia

[" Chris Doss "]

BTW the link Michael forwarded is to an superb article, but dated. I think the writer is incorrect in saying that (at least in 2004) "blackness" has caused much collective identity among the people so designated; Armenians and Azerbaijanis don't exactly get along, for instance, for obvious reasons.
