Aurora renews powerful call for solidarity with Palestine

Norwegian singer Aurora recently shared a powerful Instagram story expressing solidarity with Palestine.

The story’s message read:
“You take my water, burn my olive trees, destroy my house, take my job, steal my land, imprison my father, kill my mother, bomb my country, starve us all, humiliate us all — but I’m to blame for my resistance.”

This is not Aurora’s first public stance in support of Palestine. Last month, she sang at a solidarity protest in Bergen, Norway, further demonstrating her commitment to the cause.

In 2024, during her performance at the Glastonbury Festival in England, Aurora delivered a heartfelt speech standing with children affected by war in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, and Yemen. She held up a sign reading, “No child should be part of war.”

In an interview with Pop Crave last year, Aurora addressed potential backlash for speaking out, saying:
“There’s a lot of trouble when you are vocal about things. You do get in a lot of trouble. But, as a human, nothing else makes sense and if I don’t do it, the music I write will stop making sense and even that won’t be real anymore. I think it’s kind of just being decent. It’s the bare minimum to be a human in your work as well.”

Aurora’s ongoing activism underscores her dedication to using her platform to advocate for justice and human rights.
