The casting of a white, genocidal, colonialismist apartheid-supporting actress to play Mary in the Netflix movie has helped social-media scholars and activists to shed light on the fact that Mary, the Mother of Jesus, was Palestinian.
It is important to educate the world on what other important people were Palestinian.
Here’s a list.
1. Jesus (obviously)
2. Both dads of Jesus
3. Andrew Loyd Webber who wrote the musical about the whole thing.
4. All the characters in the musical that Andrew Lloyd Weber wrote. Minus the villains. Herod and Judas were Zionists.
5. Tim Rice. He’s the Palestinians that wrote the lyrics to the musical.
6. Jason Donovan and Donny Osmond who played the Palestinian Joseph in the other musical by Tim Rice and Donny Osmond.
7. Kylie Minogue who played Donovan’s wife on the Palestinian TV show Neighbours.
8. Chris Hemworth who had a very brief role on Neighbours but later became very famous by playing the ancient Palestinian God Thor.
