Some personal/professional news! I'm thrilled to say that I started as assistant editor at @the_logic last month. It's been such a pleasure getting to know this brilliant team and seeing how their whip-smart coverage is produced

"I’m painfully aware that every time I talk about our shortcomings when covering Palestine...I lose 'credibility.' I silently agreed not to talk about Palestine in exchange for a 'viable' career in journalism.
No longer."

No monkey microphone stenography here. History. Context. Pushback.
Correspondent Paraic O’Brien positions these messianic murderous maniacal marauders as they are, in power. Too often these squatters are treated as fringe groups.
🙏This is excellent journalism.

Complex relationship: trauma, marginalization, accuracy.

"Everyone's dead! Why are you filming?! It's been a year! All your filming was for nothing!"
And over 170 of those journalists filming, documenting, witnessing and reporting to the world have been killed by Israel in the last year, sometimes even along with their families.
Eye on Palestine@EyeonPalestine
"Everyone's dead! Why are you filming?! It's been a year! All your filming was for nothing!" While rushing a martyr to the hospital, the frustration and despair that is shared by many Palestinians, manifests itself in this man, when he sees himself being filmed. As if he was telling the photographers: "Don't waste your time giving this unjust world photos and clips to view, while they do nothing and continue their betrayal to humanity, until we're all gone!"

really shaken by this - this was a beautiful project of resilience and material support among and for people trapped in northern gaza with little predictable access to food. set up by local young people with farming backgrounds. israeli forces murdered one of them today
Yousef Aljamal 🪁@YousefAljamal
I interviewed farmer Yousef Abo Rabee for an article on agriculture in Gaza to be published by @intifada soon. Israel just killed him.

Israel assassinated farmer Yousef Abu Rabee and his two colleagues today as they were delivering seedlings to his neighbors in the North. He was a true hero, resisting genocide in impossible circumstances. Farewell, my friend. To God we belong and to Him we Return.

Yesterday I saved multiple screenshots of displaced patients in Gaza hooked to IVs burning alive after Israeli bombardment. I witnessed and recorded because mainstream media did not. And today politicians will likely sugarcoat that horror.

Billionaire-funded self-described “digital army for Israel” which receives tax breaks to target journalists (mostly racialized/younger/female) for remotely humanizing/sympathetic coverage of Palestinians. Newsrooms often bow to the pressure, issue “corrections”, discipline staff.

H*nest Reporting Canada has sent out an "alert" describing my recent profile on Toronto singer Mustafa as "non-sensical anti-Israel propaganda." Mustafa has raised $1.5M in humanitarian aid in Gaza and Sudan. HRC describes his beliefs on these subjects as "idiotic."

A year ago, my relationship with journalism changed forever. ~128 Palestinian journalists/media workers have been killed by Israeli strikes. Those remaining are the reason I'm still here. Journalism matters — but evidently not enough this past year.

Just a small part of my reflections as a journalist on the anniversary of Oct. 7, 2023:

Our new research project has launched! Led by me and supported by @ShaddCaryCentre, we’re working to create Reporting in Black Communities, a first-of-its-kind guide to improve reporting practices. Learn more on how to get involved below.
Reporting Black | Reportage Noir.e.s@reporting_black
Journalistic coverage of Black people has historically been negative, affecting Black people’s lives and contributing to negative beliefs about Black people. What if there was a resource to support more informed and equitable decisions when reporting on Black communities?
