'Why have Ye’s music business partners — record labels, publishers, touring agencies, merch companies, etc. — remained silent? Is his brand so valuable that it overshadows his messaging?'

, declared to his 18 million Instagram followers that he was “going death con 3 on Jewish people,” adding that Jews “have toyed with me and tried to black ball anyone whoever opposes your agenda.”expressing my own experiences with growing antisemitism in the U.S. and abroad. “This isn’t a matter of my Jewish faith,” I wrote. “It’s a fundamental breakdown of our shared humanity.

We’re now seeing our nation get more virulent and divisive by the day. We hear hate speech shared by public figures on global platforms. History can — and often does — repeat. But next time, will we allow inaction to prevail? As a descendant of refugees, many of whom died in the Holocaust, I will not tolerate antisemitism, racism, ignorance or hate from individuals or institutions, celebrities or politicians, friends, colleagues, or strangers. Neither should you.

I don’t buy the argument that Ye’s mental illness allows for public displays of malignant stupidity, and I don’t believe the platforms he’s been given should be exempt from responsibility either. My anger has only intensified in the days since, as have my questions: why have Ye’s music business partners — record labels, publishers, touring agencies, merch companies, etc.

The creative community has a greater responsibility than most. Our voice — particularly among young people — is pervasive. Our influence is global. Which is why our time to act isWe must speak up, no matter what the cost. And we must encourage our friends, families, colleagues and leaders to do the same.

Pay Attention to the Message.

Hollywood was silent for 20+ years about Harvey Weinstein. Music is silent the same way Hollywood was...

takeaways: 1. there are white supremacists who are not white 2. white folks will further propagate 'black on black crime' propaganda 3. white folks will further propagate 'black people sold black people into slavery' stories 4. humanity is a deficiency

Aren't we all entitled to Freedom of Speech or is that only for the WHITE people in America ?

Yea, lets cancel everyone… you suck

When migos were bashing gays no one complained..

So proving his point about speech by shutting off his bank 😂

Why did all this not happen when he said slavery was a choice? He's been talking like a Klansmen for years.

The same reason Ford, GM and Coca-Cola kept doing their business in Nazi Germany. If the profits are there they don't care.

I can ask the same for Trump , but than again he was your president !? 🧐

It's called business.
