Summary
Rolling Stone reported Tuesday that Ms. Rachel said criticism over her Gaza posts no longer fazes her, even after what she described as the fiercest backlash of her public advocacy.
Rachel Accurso said she will keep using her platform for Palestinian children despite warnings she could lose partnerships or views, arguing the children "gave me the platform."
Days earlier, she accused celebrities of a racial double standard for staying silent on Gaza and faulted Ed Sheeran for dropping Macklemore after the rapper's pro-Palestinian performances.
Pro-Israel critics say her posts spread anti-Israel propaganda and ignore Israeli victims; Coalition for Jewish Values executive Yaakov Menken contrasted Gaza's 0.031 million children with 35.5 million malnourished children elsewhere.
