The Radical Movement Rallying Around Mark Ruffalo
Hate has no place on stage.
In a recent story broken by The Rolling Stone, Macklemore has been removed from the rest of Ed Sheeran’s stadium tour after several venues allegedly told the trek’s promoter that they would not allow the rapper to perform.
This is the consequences of promoting division and hate. Macklemore’s statements were never about supporting Palestinians, they were about sowing hate and division disguised as a form of social justice.
You do not get to hijack a stadium tour and subject hundreds and thousands of people to your hateful rhetoric.

The documentary NAZA, directed by Yuval Abraham and Rachel Szor, recently received a special award at the Venice Film Festival and an over 20-minute standing ovation. Yet the film relies on anonymous testimony that cannot be independently verified, including an allegation that Israel authorized a strike knowing it could kill 500 civilians, a claim the IDF has categorically denied, saying no such strike was ever planned, approved, or carried out.
There are also serious questions surrounding the sources and individuals involved in the film that deserve scrutiny, particularly when allegations this grave are being presented as fact.
When filmmakers present unverified or false allegations about a country fighting an entrenched terrorist organization in one of the most difficult urban battlefields imaginable, especially during a war already saturated with misinformation, it is not responsible storytelling. It contributes to the demonization of Israelis at a time when the consequences of that rhetoric are very real.

Today marks 25 years since America was shaken to its core on 9/11.
In four separate hijacked plane crashes, Al-Qaeda murdered 2,977 people.
We cannot forget the evil that led to these terror attacks, and we cannot allow the moral distinction between good and evil, victim and perpetrator, to be erased, no matter how hard propagandists try to blur it.

One of the many moving stories to emerge from the morning of September 11 took place in Gander, a small town in Newfoundland, Canada, that suddenly found itself welcoming nearly 7,000 stranded travelers after their planes were diverted and they had nowhere else to land.
In the days that followed, the people of Gander opened their homes, schools, community centers, and hearts to complete strangers at a moment of unimaginable fear and uncertainty.
Their remarkable story of kindness and humanity inspired the hit musical Come From Away, which tells the story of the thousands of passengers who unexpectedly found refuge in this small Canadian community in the aftermath of 9/11.
