Tell Christina Aguilera: Don't Play for Israeli Apartheid

LET’S LEVEL UP THE PRESSURE

Do you want to do more to raise the pressure on Christina Aguilera to cancel her performance in Apartheid Israel?

Tweet @Xtina by clicking these messages:

.@xtina cancel your show in Tel Aviv. Don't cross the Palestinian picket line.

Christina Aguilera plans her first show in Israel. And Israel plans to ban any of the 5 million Palestinians in its occupation from traveling to attend. #XtinaDontGo @xtina

For 20+ years, Christina Aguilera skipped Israel. And now, as its government plans for ethnic cleansing are openly stated more than ever in those 20 years, will @xtina endorse it or reject it? #XtinaDontGo.

The current Israeli government is the most openly genocidal Israeli administration we’ve ever seen. @xtina, don't cross the Palestinian picket line to play apartheid Israel. If you're an @xtina fan, let her hear you say #XtinaDontGo by adding your name: bit.ly/xtinadontgo

Imagine @xtina not playing Israel for her entire 25 year career and then choosing its most openly genocidal time in that 25 years to do it? #XtinaDontGo

Background

Christina Aguilera is scheduled to play a show in Israel on August 10 for the first time in her 25-year career.

Join us and ask her to respect the Palestinian picket line by canceling her show.

Palestinian civil society groups have asked artists to stop performing for Israeli apartheid until Palestinians have full equality, justice, and freedom.

As a loud and proud advocate for equality, Christina could be a powerful figure in the fight for Palestinian rights.

When an artist as big as Christina cancels a scheduled performance, it can break through the news cycle in a way that can be very hard for another kind of solidarity action.

Each artist that cancels is the beginning of thousands of new people finding out about Israeli apartheid for the first time. It can lead to hundreds eventually joining the movement for Palestinian freedom.

A canceled performance also sends a message to the Israeli state and the Israeli public that the status quo is unsustainable. Israel can not continue its oppression and war crimes against the Palestinian people with impunity.

Sign the petition to ask Christina not to go.
