The recent decision by the conservative Supreme Court to revoke the Roe vs. Wade decision has raised concerns about women’s rights in the United States, particularly regarding abortion access. Several artists at the Glastonbury festival, including Billie Eilish, Phoebe Bridgers, and Harry Styles, expressed their disapproval of the decision on stage. They sang songs that were critical of the Supreme Court and its ruling.
The music industry reacted strongly on social media, with artists like Taylor Swift, Mariah Carey, and Green Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong sharing their concerns and disappointment. Many artists pledged to support organizations advocating for women’s rights and reproductive freedom, including Planned Parenthood and other similar groups.
In response to the threat of abortion restrictions in certain states in the U.S., Rage Against the Machine announced a significant donation in support of reproductive rights organizations. The music community united in condemning the Supreme Court’s decision and highlighting the potential impact on vulnerable communities.
Olivia Rodrigo also dedicated a song to Justices Samuel Alito, Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Amy Coney Barrett, and Brett Kavanaugh during her performance at Glastonbury festival expressing disdain towards them. Lily Allen sang along with Rodrigo singing “Fuck You” in response to recent controversial revocation of Roe vs Wade decision by conservative Supreme Court which sparked a wave of activism among musicians and performers across the industry.
The music industry stands in solidarity with women’s rights and reproductive freedom using their platforms to raise awareness and support organizations working to protect these rights. Artists have leveraged their influence to advocate for change and address challenges facing women in light of recent legal developments in the United States.
The outrage expressed at Glastonbury festival reflects a shared commitment among musicians and performers across different genres towards fighting for gender equality and autonomy over one’s body while also raising awareness about important social issues like access to reproductive healthcare for all citizens regardless of where they live or what their socio-economic background is.
