The Unlikely Hero of Free Speech The controversy surrounding rapper Macklemore's removal from Ed Sheeran's tour has exposed a stark divide in the world of celebrity politics.
On one side stands Robert Kraft, billionaire owner of the New England Patriots and influential figure in American culture, who allegedly used his power to silence Macklemore's pro Palestinian message.
On the other is Macklemore himself, an artist willing to risk his career for a cause he believes in.
