前NFL四分卫科林·卡佩尼克近日在播客中指控NFL球队主管串谋反对嘻哈艺术家麦克莱莫,理由是后者因在埃德·希兰巡演中发表支持巴勒斯坦的言论而被逐出演出。1卡佩尼克在接受MeidasTouch播客采访时表示"他们愿意串谋",并将此与自己因2016赛季国歌期间跪地抗议警察暴力而遭NFL封杀的经历进行类比。1
事件源于麦克莱莫在MetLife体育场告诉观众"我们没有忘记加沙和被占领的约旦河西岸的人民"以及"释放巴勒斯坦"的表态。1随后,包括球队主管罗伯特·克拉夫特在内的NFL高层表示不允许麦克莱莫在其场地演出。1克拉夫特声称禁演原因是麦克莱莫"最近的行动"和"更广泛的反犹太主义言论和象征"。1最终,麦克莱莫被移除出巡演名单,其他四位支持艺术家随后退出以表示团结。1
卡佩尼克本人在2017年对NFL提起申诉,指控球队主管共谋导致他无法被签约,该案件于2019年达成和解。1
Colin Kaepernick has alleged that NFL team owners are orchestrating a coordinated effort to silence Macklemore following the hip-hop artist's removal from Ed Sheeran's tour.1 Speaking on the MeidasTouch podcast, Kaepernick stated: "They're willing to collude."1 He drew a parallel between Macklemore's situation and his own experience, linking the rapper's exclusion to what he characterizes as NFL management's broader campaign to suppress dissenting voices.1
Macklemore was removed from the tour after addressing a crowd at MetLife Stadium with remarks supporting Palestinians.1 "We haven't forgotten the people in Gaza and the occupied West Bank," the artist told attendees, adding "Free Palestine."1 NFL team owner Robert Kraft subsequently declared that Macklemore would not be permitted to perform at his venue, citing the artist's "recent actions" and "broader antisemitic rhetoric and symbols."1
Kaepernick's accusation of collusion references his own conflict with the league.1 Beginning in the 2016 season, Kaepernick knelt during the national anthem to protest police violence, after which no NFL team signed him.1 He filed a collusion grievance against the NFL in 2017, which settled in 2019.1 Four supporting artists subsequently withdrew from the tour in response to Macklemore's removal.1
