The B-52’s are the latest artist to call out the recent rash of anti-LGBTQ bills like the Tennessee drag ban and laws aimed at trans healthcare.
“We strongly denounce these bills and stand in solidarity with our LGBTQ+ community. It is unacceptable that in the 21st century, we are witnessing such blatant attempts to undermine the rights of individuals based on their gender identity and sexual orientation. These bills not only violate the fundamental human rights of the affected individuals but also perpetuate a toxic culture of hate and intolerance that has no place in our society.
“This is how Hitler started, just weeding everybody out,” Cyndi Lauper previously said of the Republican-backed bills popping up in red states nationwide. “Equality for everybody, or nobody’s really equal.” RuPaul, perhaps America’s most well-known drag performer, similarly criticized Republican lawmakers, calling their focus on the LGBTQ+ community a “distraction technique. “[It’s] distracting us away from the real issues that they were voted into office to focus on — jobs, healthcare, keeping our children safe from harm at their own school,” RuPaul added on social media.
