‘I am not complicit’ Ed Sheeran said in his statement after Macklemore was dropped as a support act on his US tour.
Macklemore had been dropped because he said the words ‘Free Palestine’ on stage.
Sheeran blamed the promoters and the billionaire Robert Kraft said he put pressure on Sheeran to drop Macklemore.
On Free State today we ask what lies beneath the pressure to silence Macklemore .
What does it tell us about the world that is being shaped by billionaires? Does the response by those including Sheeran’s other support acts tell us something too about a resistance to this world order? Is there a determination to do something about the helplessness so many people feel about a genocide and much more?
