Marissa Bode slams Ed Sheeran for not defending Macklemore after the rapper was removed from tour for supporting Palestine:
“Ed Sheeran, my legs may not work like they used to before, but at least I have a f**king spine. Free Palestine, bitch!”
the fact that no established, big artists in the music industry is speaking on this. these young girls at least have the courage to be on the right side!!
Ms. Rachel reveals she was warned she might lose partnerships and views for showing her support for Palestine:
“That doesn’t faze me because the kids gave me the platform. I’m going to stand with them no matter what. People on the ground in Gaza are risking their lives all the time to help kids. I can do it from Manhattan.”

Macklemore opened for Ed Sheeran at MetLife Stadium wearing a keffiyeh, performed "Hind's Hall" with Gaza footage on the screens, and told 80,000 people he wanted those in Gaza and the West Bank to know "they have not been forgotten."
He said every human being deserves "the exact same freedom, to know safety and peace before knowing the sounds of violence."
He called ICE a "terrorist organization" and shouted "Free Palestine, free Cuba, Congo, Sudan and Iran."
The Israeli-American Council petitioned to drop him from remaining tour dates.
