MACKLEMORE’S PRINCIPLED STANCE: Turning the conversation back to Palestine
After calling for a free Palestine, Macklemore was dropped from Ed Sheeran’s tour because of Zionist threats to cancel shows.
During his opening act, Macklemore displayed images of Israel’s destruction and genocide in Gaza and said that Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank should know they have not been forgotten. He performed “Hind’s Hall,” and said to tens of thousands of people “Free Palestine” — this triggered Zionists into a frenzy, igniting a campaign to get Macklemore pulled from the rest of the tour and silence any anti-zionist narrative.
Robert Kraft—prominent AIPAC donor and owner of the New England Patriots and Gillette Stadium, who is also connected to notorious s*x trafficker and alleged Mossad agent Jeffrey Epstein—rallied stadium owners across the country to cancel upcoming tour stops if Macklemore remained in the shows. Ed Sheeran and his team gave in to the Zionist pressure and kicked Macklemore off the tour in the name of “neutrality” and keeping things “apolitical.” In his statement online, Macklemore exposed Ed Sheeran’s “apolitical” stance for what it really is: complicity in normalization and genocide.
Zionists are attempting to re-gain ground after losing all legitimacy on the global stage. Attempts to silence Macklemore and other pro-Palestine voices will not erase the images that emerged from Gaza, nor change the fact that Israel is committing a genocide against the Palestinian people.
Under oppression, there is no neutrality. There is no side but the truth and Gaza is our compass on the path of total liberation. All people of conscience have a duty to speak out against the ongoing genocide—and against our government’s actions of providing money, weapons, and bombs for Israel while covering for them politically and diplomatically.
