US rapper Macklemore has announced the launch of his own Free Palestine Tour this fall. The announcement follows his removal from Ed Sheeran’s US tour earlier this month due to his pro-Palestinian comments and performance.
The tour will feature three European dates in October, with shows scheduled for Dublin, Paris, and London. The series of performances is set to begin in Dublin next month.
Macklemore stated that being apolitical during a genocide does not work. He has promised that all proceeds from the tour will go to organisations supporting Palestinians.
