Protests in Sweden Call Out Israel’s Participation in Eurovision

HeadlineMay 10, 2024

In Sweden, thousands of protesters took to the streets of Malmö Thursday denouncing Israel’s participation in the Eurovision song contest. Eurovision has rejected mounting demands to ban Israel from the competition over its genocide in Gaza. Swedish activist Greta Thunberg was among the protesters. She also addressed the growing campus protest movement in the U.S. and around the world.

Greta Thunberg: “I think they should be everywhere. And once again, young people are leading the way, showing the world how we should react to this.”
