Nas Daily: whitewashing Australia in just 1 minute

Published in Djed Press, 11 May, 2018

Usually I don’t pay much attention to Nas Daily, an Arab-Israeli Vlogger, because after seeing many of his videos on Palestine, it became very clear to me and many of us Palestinians that he is more interested in bargaining with the world for our humanity despite the material costs rather than engaging in any kind of awareness-raising or resistance.

But I can’t keep ignoring him while he is in Australia making voyeuristic videos about Indigenous culture; in the country where I reside as a migrant settler with all my settler privilege, where as an Indigenous Palestinian person, I have found myself living on another stolen land, another settler-colonial entity.
