Greta Thunberg speaks out on Ed Sheeran’s “lack of spine” on Palestine, says “if we ourselves are not stepping out of our comfort zones, we are not doing enough”
It's a reminder that activism isn't a box you tick once and move on from, is it? When someone with a massive platform stays quiet on issues they might care about, it does raise questions about where the line sits between personal choice and public responsibility. Whether you agree with Greta's take on Ed Sheeran specifically or not, there's something worth thinking about in that challenge to all of us, particularly those in the public eye. For Cledvibes Radio listeners who care about music and the world beyond it, this kind of conversation is where things get interesting, because artists we listen to are also citizens with choices to make.
