Macklemore, the rapper behind ‘Thrift Shop,’ has found himself at the center of an international debate after being dropped from Ed Sheeran’s US tour following his outspoken support for Palestine. His political activism goes back further than you might think,

When the pop singer Pink took to social media to decry rapper Macklemore’s comments on Israel’s genocide of Palestinians — a slaughter that has taken the lives of more than 20,000 kids — she brought up her decadelong role as a UNICEF ambassador to show that she cares about children.
