Joshua, thank you for this article. I was scrolling the internet looking to see if someone had written about Arab supremacy, the fact that it has appropriated black liberation movements.

I am Arab-Canadian, my husband is black-Canada and wow can we tell you the amount of hatred we have received for standing with Israel.

One of my articles got featured in times of Israel and the amount of racist garbage my husband received about me was ridiculous.

I’m writing about this very thing for another TOI piece. I will reference back to this piece - so many important things you talk about.

But I think you should consider submitting this piece to TOI- I know it’s 2 years old but it’s just as salient today as it was then. I don’t remember their policy about publishing things that have already been published but I think you could easily just write a new intro about October 7 and conclusion.

I was so disheartened to see that no one else was discussing it.

Your article gives me hope and I think it would give a lot of people hope.

Thank you again for telling the truth. Your friendly Canadian neighbour 😊

Fear not! The "Palestinian Appropriation of Black Pain"

has been put on the 'back burner' for now.

(In the meantime, Black issues aren't going anywhere)

-The Palestinian propaganda machine is currently

knee deep exploiting the war in Ukraine,

since it's a 'time sensitive' world media issue.
