NZ musician Lorde has cancelled her gig in Tel Aviv. She has also said that she's not too proud to admit that she made a mistake in originally intending to play there. Nice contrast to the arrogance of Nick "It's all about Me, Me, Me" Cave. Lorde's decision follows an open letter to her by two young women in NZ, one Jewish and one Palestinian, along with lots of support for their letter and lots of calls for her to not play Tel Aviv. This is an important decision because Lorde's fan base is primarily young, a whole new generation of people who haven't been through experiences like the anti-apartheid movement. https://electronicintifada.net/blogs/nora-barrows-friedman/lorde-cancels-tel-aviv-show-calls-it-right-decision _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
