Summary
Ms. Rachel said she will match Macklemore’s $1 million donation to Palestinian causes, directing her contribution to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund.
In an Instagram post, Rachel Griffin Accurso urged “every wealthy White celebrity” to match the gift and speak out, citing more than 20,000 Palestinian children killed in Gaza.
Macklemore had announced he would give his Loop Tour earnings to six groups including PCRF, HEAL Palestine, Gaza Soup Kitchen, Medical Aid for Palestinians, UNRWA USA and ANERA.
The pledge follows Macklemore’s removal from Ed Sheeran’s tour after he repeatedly called for a “Free Palestine” and performed his song “Hind’s Hall,” a move Accurso publicly criticized.
Accurso’s Gaza advocacy has drawn backlash from pro-Israel groups, which accuse her of spreading anti-Israel propaganda and downplaying Israeli victims.
