Lady Gaga is leading the fight against Arizona and its racist law SB1070. At her show on Saturday night, the ‘Telephone’ songstress told the crowd;
‘We have to be active. We have to actively protest. I will not cancel my show. I will hold you, and we will hold each other, and we will protest this state.”
Lady Gaga has been very active in the political arena especially when it comes to issues that are unfair to people that are different. Gaga has been an activist for gay rights and now she is fighting for those in Arizona. Gaga went on to tell the crowd;
‘I met a boy today who is suffering. . . . He told me his house was raided because of a parking ticket or something. They took his brother, and now he is in Mexico … It’s really (unfair), and it’s really disgusting. I think it’s important that people understand that it’s a state of emergency for this place and this state.’
Gaga is correct, between Chicago and Arizona we need definitive change in both areas. In Chicago we need to to curb the violence and in Arizona we need to fight against SB 1070. Let’s join Lady Gaga in her efforts.
