Celeb Solidarity: Tessa Thompson Backs Palestinians, Calls for Israeli Ceasefire

Tessa Thompson, a renowned celebrity, has joined forces with Drake, Jennifer Lopez, America Ferrera, and other famous artists to sign an open letter urging President Joe Biden and Congress to push for a ceasefire in the ongoing war between Israel and Palestine.

The open letter, called The Artists4Ceasefire, demands that President Biden and Congress take action to halt the hostilities between Israel and Hamas. The Artists4Ceasefire letter was sent to the U.S. government in hopes of convincing both parties involved to agree to de-escalate the situation in the region after weeks of intense fighting.

“We come together as artists and advocates, but most importantly as human beings witnessing the devastating loss of lives and unfolding horrors in Israel and Palestine,” the letter reads. Tessa Thompson’s involvement in signing the Artists4Ceasefire letter demonstrates her concern for the Palestinians and indirectly appeals to Israel to cease the continuous attacks on Gaza that have claimed the lives of thousands of women, children, and elderly individuals.

Celebrities and artists joining together to speak out against the violence in Israel and Palestine highlights the power of their platform to raise awareness and advocate for peace. Tessa Thompson’s support for Palestinians and her plea for the Israeli government to end the ongoing conflict showcases the importance of using one’s voice to stand up for justice and the well-being of all individuals affected by violent conflicts.
