Billionaire stadium owner, Robert Kraft, did not like Macklemore, a Grammy
winning rapper, saying “Free Palestine” on stage — so he made calls and
the artist got pulled off of Ed Sheeran’s tour.

Sheeran Boston Shows

This is not just about a single musical act. This is about how a small
handful of powerful people, like stadium owners, can threaten someone’s
livelihood in order to prevent an entire massive issue from being spoken
about — in this case, the genocide in Gaza.

But it doesn’t stop there.

Oligarchs and billionaires could just as easily prevent people from
speaking out about AI, workers’ rights, or any issue they don’t like. That
is what makes this a dangerous precedent. This moment is a test of how far
the very powerful can go in censoring speech.

And that’s why it’s important that we speak out about it. That we make
clear that this is an abuse of power. And that we keep the focus on Robert
Kraft and the way he’s using his influence to try to control what can and
cannot be talked about in America.

I am going to fight to ensure freedom of speech — guaranteed to us in the
First Amendment — is protected from oligarchs and billionaires who want to
silence any form of dissent or peaceful protest.

In solidarity,

Alexandria

One last thing before you go…

Alexandria will always speak out and fight against the billionaires who
are trying to control our democracy. But she can’t do this work all on her
own, she needs a movement alongside her.
