TL;DR Summary

At a MetLife Stadium show opening for Ed Sheeran, Macklemore said his call to 'Free Palestine' is about peace and equal rights, not a attack on Jewish people, stressing that 'None of us will be free until we are all free.' The remarks drew backlash from the Israeli American Council, which launched a petition to remove him from the rest of the tour, while he also voiced support for freedom for people in Gaza and the West Bank.
