‘Portray India terribly’: Canadian woman slams ‘racist’ content creators for selective coverage in viral video |

In a spirited viral video, a Canadian woman shines a light on the rich tapestry of India’s beauty, urging international content creators to shift their focus from cliched narratives of poverty. She showcases the splendor of opulent resorts and the breathtaking variety of landscapes, drawing a stark contrast to the distorted portrayals that emphasize festivals and flights, ultimately perpetuating racism.

A Canadian woman’s video defending India has gone viral as she criticised misleading travel content by foreign creators on platforms such as YouTube, TikTok and Instagram. In a clip lasting about two minutes, she argues that many influencers focus too much on negative aspects of India rather than its broader beauty and diversity.“I think it’s really important to talk about the terrible way that content creators have been portraying India especially on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram,” she says in the video. She adds that there is “just growing racism against Indian people.”The speaker condemns vloggers who reduce India to a single crowded street or unpleasant experiences. “Tourists will go to places like Old Delhi and kind of say this is what India looks like when it’s one really small part of a city which is a very large country,” she says.
