A BBC staffer is under fire for a string of antisemitic Facebook posts in which she referred to Jewish people as “Nazi apartheid parasites” and called white people a “virus.”
Dawn Queva, senior scheduling coordinator and playout planner at BBC Three, made many of the troubling, since-deleted posts over the last few months, Deadline revealed.
In one rant, Queva — whose profile appeared under the name Dawn Las Quevas-Allen — called Jewish people “Nazi apartheid parasites” and accused them of funding a “holohoax,” the outlet said.
She also made several posts criticizing Israel and Zionism — including one in which she referred to “a bunch of subcontinental European melanin recessive CaucAsian japhetic AshkeNazi who have no None zero zilch blood connection to the land of Palestine or Israel historically.”
Some of Queva’s disturbing posts go back nearly a decade: In 2014, she referred to Israel as “Israhell,” the Times of Israel said.
“The Zionist genocidal land squatting so called Jew’ irrespective of the fact that The UKKK and Amerikkka gave away land they had no god given right to a people who have no god given right to,” Queva added in another post, according to screenshots shared by Deadline.

Queva — who previously worked for A+E Networks, UKTV and Disney, according to Deadline — also repeatedly took aim at white people, to whom she referred as a “virus” and a “mutant invader species,” the Telegraph wrote.
Several of her posts refer to Great Britain as the “UKKK,” in reference to the Ku Klux Klan.
In another update, she wrote that white people were a “barbaric bloodthirsty rapacious murderous genocidal thieving parasitical deviant breed.”
Several of her posts were removed or restricted by Facebook — including an early January incident in which her activity was restricted for bullying and hate speech, the Times of Israel said.
Queva slammed the action as “anti black klu klux klan white/Zionist restrictions,” the outlet reported.

Queva appeared to respond to the reports about her previous posts on Friday, when she updated her Facebook wall with a video from the 1987 movie “The Garbage Pail Kids” alongside a caption that read “only those who live a lie hate the truth!”
She also commented below to add an infographic supposedly listing Jewish slave ship owners, as well as the infamous photo of Gordon, an escaped slave with a heinously scarred back due to years of abuse.
Queva’s disturbing posts are believed to have been circulated in BBC WhatsApp groups that formed in the wake of Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
The BBC was under scrutiny for its coverage of the attack and subsequent war — and director general Tim Davie has held “listening meetings” in order to address the perceived bias in its work, Deadline explained.

There have also been recent reports that 22 employees at the national broadcaster have filed complaints about antisemitism in the workplace, the Telegraph added.
“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,” a BBC spokesperson told The Post.
