This use of wood season housing seats in its own drama over who is and who isnt cooling for a ceasefire, but also never to use office and insurance is doing enough with them must have platforms to oppose the on store on gaza. Im mary impulse, a lot of this is the street the how do we get other actors to support the doing it for night . Theres so many people wearing the for the fire. I applaud billy infinity is for using these big moment on the red carpet, to show the compassion as a stand up for what they believe is sorry to ruin anyone. Celebrity worship party. But really you want to cookie because you were a pin. She hasnt said this entire time. We are in month 5 of the genocide. She hasnt put anything on instagram, she hasnt made any statements. And then she shows up to this self indulgence, leave glad handing party, where they just give each other awards and tell each other how amazing they all are. And people are falling all over themselves because she wore a pin in which she didnt even say anything about it. Why is the bar on the floor when it comes to celebrities . I ask myself, what happens to our humanity in this moment . What happens . Whoever is the is the power to the number of celebrities have paid a heavy price for speaking out on the is radius. Sold on garza saying, i do a lipa as well as bella and g g. D has been labeled. The knew him off influence of her gaze, but even those who stayed silent her face consequences including backlash on social media. So are we expecting too much of celebrities office and insurances, or should they be during more to use that platforms to take of funds . To explore this, im joined by a hollywood film and t v. Right to and direct set. Com. Send me an american roll out, sold back in los angeles and the palestinian american content creative yada, as im from toto. A new jersey and nisa moved from seattle, washington, and welcome to you. Well thank you so much for being here. Uh, i would love to kick off with you and to talk about really the pressure that exists in, in hollywood today. Um you spoken out in the past about being the only voice and the difficulties of being the only voice in the room. So as a filmmaker, let me start by asking you how difficult is it for you to be the only voice in your community . If you are, of course, and i think with me in my own community, i am certainly not the only voice. I mean, we have a, a, a, just an amazing swell of people speaking up around the world from all corners of the world. So thats been really beautiful, but weve in hollywood itself. It certainly does feel sometimes like i am the only voice in the room and that i am the only posting invoice on the room. So that is definitely felt and how, how do i handle it . I mean, to be very honest, i feel like it is my absolute, not just duty, but a privilege to encourage others to speak up and to really, really use my voice with in the system to change the system. And you mentioned that there were all people within the so making Community Speaking up, do you think enough celebrities and public figures all using their platforms to speak up . Do you feel emboldened by them by who already is doing that . Absolutely not. I do not feel emboldened by silence. It is something that has been um, i will Say Something about silence. It might seem like the safe route specifically for celebrities and for people with platforms who are afraid to. Ready i dont know their brand deals or whatever. It may seem the safe crowd, but it is not neutral. The silence is not neutral, it is aggressive, it is violent, it is devastating, and it is deadly. And is it . Is that pressure . Do you think these days on celebrities to speak up on gaza and i think there is more and more pressure. Absolutely. Uh and again it comes from social media. It really, really does. That is the platform where people are able to hold truth to power and are able to really connect with a or, or hold celebrities or influencers or whatever they want to call themselves to account. And you are seeing that pressure rise and rise in from that clip that you just showed. People are smart people are a tude to when someone is being real and, and is really using their voice for truth versus just performative. People are a to into this, now we understand what is the difference between performance and true, ally ship and true. Speaking out for truth, yara speaking up on gods that has been described as the last to do in hollywood, do you think that is still the case today . I do think that it might still be the case today. A lot of people are hesitant to speak up, but i do think that a lot more people are speaking of now more than before. But theres also some celebrities that dont speak up, for instance. So in a gomez had put a story up saying that she doesnt think that a social media post will make a difference. And in that sense, i didnt think that that was the right move is having hundreds of millions of followers saying Something Like that. Can we make people think that their voice doesnt matter when, as little as said that in this case, silence is violence and its not taking a neutral stance. And at this point, peoples lives are at stake. So i do think that one should anyone that has a platform that claims to care for the lives of people and for humanities should be speaking up no matter where theyre from or what they believe. And um, i wanna ask you a nice uh about why some people on speaking off were sort of doing maybe more performative phones of sorted our see, why do you think that might be i think people dont speak up because they feel like they either dont have to or i think a lot of times, celebrities and implementers in general like to enhance wise themselves and act as if they dont have the same access to information and are scared to spread misinformation and whatnot. When in reality, especially in america, we all have the same access to information. And i also think a lot of celebrities in particular do not speak up because they feel as if they are going to get ostracized with in the hollywood community. And they are going to miss out on opportunities to get money. And i think at the end of the day it is really about money, which i think is incredibly disappointing when especially bases about like peoples lives. So yeah, yeah. Well, on the subjects of penalties which some artists, celebrities, fame, why impact them speaking up, this is acts up. Michael ross report, seemingly threatening those who dont support israel with a loss of funding. I promise its being discussed. Paying attention to whos being at the jewish anti semitic israel, or not saying anything at all. I promise we see im im, im in need a lot of jewish people see nice. See why, for, for suckers seemed like you could kind of convince us, trust me, 6 months, 8 months, 2 years. Were remembering what painted. I dont know. I want to ask you, is this a type of pressure which you recognize . And i will say there is absolute pressure, and i want to talk about it. I will say, i dont feel any pressure from michael rapp, of course. Certainly not. But i, what i want. I want everyone to notice, Michael Rappaport still, you know, it is, is gainfully employed. No one dropped him. He is totally fine. In fact, its, his fiery brand is, you know, probably, uh, even doing better than ever before. But people who are not doing better than ever before, are people like my head, the he who is the top agent at c a who, you know, got stripped of her board position, got demoted. And if it wasnt for tom cruise, you know, coming up whos she represents . She probably would have been fired simply for saying that what is happening is a genocide. You have people like susan surrender and drop by u t. A. You have people like Melissa Guerrero who was fired from scream, 7, the movie, and the, and the list goes on and on. And if i may say for me myself, but i got a phone call from my agents the same as my head. The hills agency is it was my agency as well. And on monday, last monday they called me and they informed me that they are dropping me as well. Now, the reasons that they gave where, you know, market situations for me personally, its hard for me not to feel that the way i speak out about full us being didnt have at least some influence on their decision to drop me. So it is, it, that the, the pressure is very real, the consequences are very real. But, but i will say that just as much as there are of, you know, consequences. Net, negative things to happening to people who are speaking up. There are also a swell of people who are supporting i am talking to account agency right now. Thats extremely interested in exactly what i have to say. And we have some workers for palestine, who are a collective of artist within hollywood. The reason why the oscar started late was because of film workers from palestine because they blocked, you know, the whole tri state for, for people going to the oscar. So there is a, i think there is a um, an increasing voice with in hollywood. And it is very amazing to see, but there are actual definite consequences. And um, for me myself, i think that i am. Oh, totally. Okay. With that well on that point. Uh, he is a tweet uh from a filmmaker down marcus on that speech at the all school, where he said if you watch jonathan glazes oscar speech in his hands with his hands were shaking and they were shaking because it takes courage to speak truth to power especially when he knew his was could unlike he would be met with backlash. Any. So i want to ask you about this backlash. Is there a full of counsel culture . Do you think that were observing in hollywood and beyond i think a 100 percent. That is what were seeing, especially with jonathan glazer. Speech i saw, i think it was about 450. I believe a people in hollywood that i mean sinus right on that side. I think it was like a letter condemning. So i think laser, and if we look at what he said, he did not say anything about was that out there or crazy, right . He just said, i refute my jewishness, and hall costs we hijacked by an occupation and conflict for so many innocent people. And so he really didnt say anything about was and when i 1st heard about a, i thought he said something way more about we need to and occupation. This is a genocide happening approach simeon. So then seeing the backlash that youve gotten when he is literally a jewish man who made a film about the holocaust. And he is now facing like defamation, essentially, and cancelled right within the hollywood space. So what kinds of phones that sort of diversity, all possible, do you think, given the circumstances, given the performance is that people are facing any so i think solidarity can show up in many different ways. I think people often like to think that solidarity can only happen in one way or another. But i think even just for example, celebrities can be re posting on their Instagram Stories from palestinian sources, talking about what is happening impala sign i what ive seen also in some red carpet as people wearing the post to me in flag, which i think is incredibly important especially when theyre like israels actively trying to raise palestine as a full hold on pulse demands that palestine isnt real like yours. Missy doesnt exist. And so i think just speaking about palestine is also a great way to show solidarity is the more people that speak about palestine, the last that palestinians, for instance, will face repercussions and consequences for speaking out. Ers, what do you make of some of the phones, the solidarity weve seen from pins to cease fire badges to speeches . What would you rate the different forms that we see now the for now, for instance, the ceasefire pen is like you put the ceasefire pin on you wear it for a couple of pictures, then you not a peep any other time. I dont think that that solidarity that like, i feel like we need it one amplified causing invoices to speak up more than just where it pen because youre scared that maybe i dont know what the intention is. Maybe its scared of backlash when the pass and Community Maybe to show solidarity. But to stand with palestinians is not to pick what is most convenient for you. I think that weve been facing occupation for long enough in genocide, so long enough and that we need our voices to be amplified and we need our story to be told and we need people to stand with us. And i think for me personally im, i dont care what i lose for advocating for my people in for speaking up. And i just wish that there wasnt this like closing of fear of losing everything just for speaking up about call sign. Well lets talk about what sort of diversity looks like when slabs do get stuck in check this out. Her schafer with the rest of today will protest a good sources for peace advocating for these firing pals. I dont think people understand how big this is. Hunter schafer is one of the prime a list jen z stars right now. Not only does it put the rest of or a list, co stars in appears to shame. It shows that no matter what platform that it is worth risking it in order to stand on the right side. It has a lot of the back of that. I want to ask you do all forms of ally shape martha . Uh, yes, absolutely. All forms of ally ship matter, but not all forms of performative ally ship matter. I 1st want to give it the, hey, ya to hunter, and just how brave she is a. And it is bravery. And it is, it is people like her who, who really show us what it really means to put your privilege and your celebrity on the line for one of the most profound moments in our modern history right now in the world. So, um, so yeah, i do think all forms of ally ship absolutely matter. Ill give it a really good example. For instance, you know, if youre not like 100 who is, you know, on the line, for instance, brian cox, you know, whos, whos the lead actor in succession when he recites. If i know how to use a home, uh, and records that and post that um, that is so profound. So it doesnt just need to be, you know, uh if youre not able to be on the front lines, there are so many other ways to really, really show and really amplify philosophy and, and focusing the voices. And that is a beautiful way. Um, so to brian cox, i also wanted to my niece, i wanna put to you the counselor arguments. Some might say, well look, you know, celebrities all to spend no x, but they dont necessarily know much about this. But being off the way in on something that they might not know very much about, you know, is it, we just expecting too much of celebrities and influences. And i do not think that we are, i think its anything we are not expecting enough from them. And again, i think that there is sort of this thing about a lot of influences. And so i really like to think that, oh, maybe im not educated, im so i cant speak out about it. You do not have to be an expert on the 76. 00, your occupation of palestine to know that genocide is not okay. And not that again. I dont think celebrities should be like those. So like focal point, when it comes to talking about palestine, but i 100 percent think that they can be amplifying and up lifting calls to the invoices. And i think its everyones responsibility, especially for americans when our tax dollars are directly funding miss genocide in our like us as an active participant in the genocide of palestinians. But every one, every Single Person i believe fully needs to speak up and have like, is that . Yeah, i just think that they everyone has to, i dont know. Let me, let me speak to that question back up. So the Entertainment Industry has experience a number of reckoning of the last 2 years, the rice and strikes me to move and the b l i move and do use the new alliances. Imagining um i, i would love to say that i do. I currently dont, i just want to be very severely honest. I still think that there are just not enough uh, courageous, brave voices. But i do hope that that that is the case with in hollywood. But to be very honest with you. Um, i do think that is the case within the world, just not within hollywood. I mean, you see, you know, just the protests. Weve never seen protests like this in, in, in modern history. The people from all walks of life from all parts of the world. Im showing up for full of things. So i think in this case, hollywood is actually going to be the one thats going to be completely out of touch with humanity and with people if they keep going like this. And um, let me ask you, you all right, do you think thats impacting the follow or is that support is . Do you think that is going to be a sort of reckoning in terms of the assign base for some of these people who arent speaking out a 100 percent . I think that for instance, when serena gomez posted again, im mentioning some of them is when she had posted that she doesnt think its also media post matters. And then like her reasoning to not posting was more about herself then about other people. A lot of the palestinians stopped supporting her. A lot of people are staying with her. For instance, taylor swift had a song that it was trending on. Tick tock that people were using from the river to the sea. And youll never find another like me. Where as rallies are design a store just singing to that song and dancing and saying that it will never find them of the like them. And taylor swift did not speak up about any of it so. So in that sense that we and its not only pulsing, is this not only also . Is this not only arrows anyone that is broke house time, which is now i feel like is more than ever. People are cancel, cancelling and quote unquote or on song them or not supporting. And that goes 1st way to go was terms of where beauty, even her company like no one words like im boycotting because again, we dont agree with her sense. So i want to talk about the emergence of these new spaces in this use south by southwest festival build as a convergence of tech film, music education. Im culture. And of course, among the most prominent and statement festivals in america. So office withdrawal on mass in an effort to show solidarity with the people of gaza. And we started this campaign. We were not anticipating mass boycotts. We just wanted to Work Together with the musicians, knowing that their cultural labour is what south by kind of prophets off of, and markets itself on. And the artist took it upon themselves to say, no i, i can do you one better. But if it had only been well when it started, it was just a few. And so they werent really headlines about it because no ones going to really Pay Attention when 56. 00, maybe a dozen artist drop out. But as the numbers kept growing, we reached, i want to say 117. I dont remember the exact number and its still growing as we find out people afterwards. But south by southwest publicly college that they had about 2000 acts. And so we removed about 5 percent through the boycott, which is not insignificant. And so it really only worked because there was that mass action kind of aspect to it where individually were not really making a statement by boycotting but doing it together, doing it and tying it directly to, to boycott the investment sanctions move meant by, by Palestinian Society the bigger impact were able to make, and so at the oscars, you know, if a few people where pins, thats not nothing, i would rather see the way the pains than not. But what id really like to see is people say on mass, im not going a lot your a south by southwest alone yourself. Do you think there is this imagines as new alternative spaces that divesting from is riley you observing them . Yes. Yes. A 100 percent. Um, uh i, i absolutely do. And i think its, it is inevitable. I think i hearken back a 2nd ago about how hollywood is becoming more and more out of touch with the people and with humanity in general. And i think what you see, even within social media is people are hungry for real stories. Theyre hungry for troops. And what youre going to see, i believe, is exactly what you said, is this rise in, you know, a kind of outside the system spaces where people can actually hear real true stories. And i do think that is currently led by the hunger for follow spinning stories. And so i absolutely think so nice. I want to ask you about the forms of solar that receive that you would like to see going forward. We all of course, or 6 months in now to these horses, you know, if people can use up top forms, what would you like to see them doing with them . Again, i think re posting on their social media is from house to me on sources and from reliable and accurate sources is incredibly important. And i think if i go down the route of influencers, i think they have an Incredible Opportunity to fit palestine into their needs. As to why they are influencers and why they have large followings. And ive seen this before with influence or is doing a make up look, that is palestine themes or cooking colors, demand food, or even like learning how to do tough trees. And its all dirty with palestinians, so i think there is a way for every Single Person to speak up about palestine and figure out what works best for them. And again, i think just saying genocide is bad and this, these 10 bare minimum is what people should be doing me a little. I want to ask you about these alternative senses of power. Of course, tyler perry now runs one of the largest is not the largest Film Production studio in the united states. You know, all were going to see the emergence of these new senses of power in the switch refused to bow to financial constraints. And is that something that you all puzzled that youll uh, part of developing seeing and how can now this foster it . Oh yeah, absolutely. I am seeing it. And uh, and by the way, i want to say, uh, i specifically see it specifically within uh, black spaces in hollywood. Uh, and i want to give reference to that. Um, uh, black america leads the way a lot of the times when it comes to, you know, uh, to fight for human rights for speaking out to human rights and for really changing the system. So i wanna get a big reverence to um, to the solidarity that the black community and the black Artist Community has, has been given, giving the fullest any movement. Thats number one, number 2, um uh i. So i myself actually was was inspired by whats been happening and i created a, an initiative specifically for exactly what youre talking about. Its called the safina filmmaker project and its initiative specifically to raise will the cd voices and projects to creative mentorship, resistance or alternative storytelling and alternative bases of power within the ladies on that note, im going to say a big thank you to the la yara and any so thank you so much for joining us today.
