The Mexican actress, Melissa Barrera, and the American, Susan Sarandon; They were fired by Hollywood companies in the United States because they made comments against attacks carried out by the Israeli army in Gaza and for supporting the Palestinian community.
The American film company Spyglass Media Group removed Melissa Barrera from the cast of the film Scream 7due to a comment he wrote on social media about Israel’s response to Hamas attacks, in which he called for a ceasefire.
“We do not tolerate anti-Semitism or hate speech in any form, including false references to genocide, ethnic cleansing, distortion of the Holocaust, or anything that grossly crosses the line into hate speech.”
“I have been actively searching for videos and information about Palestine, apart from for the last two weeks or so I have been following the events. Because? Why do they only show the other side in media shows. Why they do that, I’ll let you figure out for yourself. In general, the algorithm in social networks has the essence. Well… my discovery page on IG will only show me videos that show and talk about Israel.” This is how the Mexican woman’s comment read.
After the decision to separate Melissa from her role as Samantha Carpenter became known, the actress’ followers have spoken out against the production, arguing that the reason is not valid for the dismissal, and through the hashtag #JusticeForMelissa, many people have expressed their support for the 33-year-old star.
Although the Mexican actress has not yet made any type of position known, she recently shared the following message on her social networks: “at the end of the day, I prefer to be excluded by who I included, than to be included by who I exclude.”
Susan Sarandon, who won an Oscar for Best Actress in the film Death penalty (‘Dead Man Walking’) In 1995, he participated in a demonstration in favor of the Palestinians in New York, United States. Therefore, the United Talent Agency ended her relationship with her.
The news was confirmed Tuesday by company spokesman Richard Siklos, who said the agency is no longer representing Susan Sarandon. Furthermore, the spokesperson declined to provide further details.
“There are many people who are afraid, afraid to be Jewish right now, and are beginning to taste what it feels like to be Muslim in this country, so often subject to violence,” the actress declared at the rally.
However, Sarandon noted that criticizing Israel should not be considered anti-Semitic, and stated that he was against anti-Semitism and Islamophobia.
