“A performer at Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl halftime show unfurled a flag emblazoned with the words Sudan and Gaza in a protest over the two wars roiling the Middle East. Security personnel at the stadium detained the performer shortly after the flag was waved atop a car used as a prop in the performance. New Orleans police said were determining whether any charges would be lodged against the performer. The NFL said the person would be banned for life from NFL stadiums and events. ‘We commend security for quickly detaining the individual who displayed the flag. He was a part of the 400-member field cast. The individual hid the item on his person and unveiled it late in the show. No one involved with the production was aware of the individual’s intent,’ the league said.” [editor’s note: Possible “charges” for expressing an opinion while participating in a dramatic performance? WTF? – TLK] (02/10/25)
