BBC Three star Dawn Queva has been in the headlines after she shared a few statements on Facebook and allegedly made controversial remarks about Jews and White people. Queva currently serves as a schedule co-ordinator at BBC Three, as per The Sun.

The posts were shared from a Facebook account under the username Dawn Las Quevas-Allen. The account no longer exists, but the posts have attracted heavy criticism towards Queva on all the platforms.

She reportedly referred to the white Europeans as "melanin-recessive parasites" in one of her posts. She wrote in another post that the Rothschild family was responsible for "holohoax", a word used by those who disagree with the claims of Nazi holocaust.

Netizens took to X to express their frustration towards the posts, with one of them sharing a picture of Queva and writing,

According to Deadline, a BBC spokeswoman said,

“We don’t comment on individual members of staff and we have well-established and robust processes in place to handle such issues, we do not tolerate anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, or any form of abuse and we take any such allegations seriously and take appropriate disciplinary action wherever necessary.”

Dawn Queva targeted two communities on her Facebook posts

Dawn Queva has been sharing a few Facebook posts where she allegedly used inappropriate words against two communities since last month—the Times of Israel reported that Dawn Queva's posts were linked to the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The allegedly antisemitic posts were not deleted until BBC discovered them, and she reportedly described the Jews as "antisemitic subcontinental European melanin recessive Caucasians of the synagogue of Satan" in one of her posts.

She allegedly wrote in another post,

"Jewish were the ones buying and selling those who's kidnap from Africa people trafficking rape and enslavement they funded and made money off their free labour on their plantations for 30 generations deep and are the same people committing genocide in Israel today against the Palestinians."

Dawn Queva reportedly wrote in a different post on the following day that being Jewish means to "practice a religion loosely based on the Hebraic faith."
