Karol G Shares Support for Latinos Amid Anti-ICE Protests: ‘I Am With My People. Always’

Karol G is responding to the protests that have erupted across the U.S. in response to the Trump administration’s mass arrests of migrants by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). On Wednesday, the Colombian star shared a message of support to the Latino community, who have been primarily targeted by the mass deportations.

“How crazy it is to wake up these days and see everything that’s happening,” Karol wrote in her Instagram story. “I can’t keep quiet when something hurts me. I am Colombian, and my country is going through a devastating time. I am Latina, and what is happening to my community is deeply painful.”

“Being Latino shouldn’t generate rejection or fear. It should inspire PRIDE AND RESPECT. Latinos are a blessing; persistent, hardworking, dreamers… People who, wherever they are, work the fields, build cities, start businesses, heal wounds, teach, support homes, take care of families,” she continued in her post. “We are here to contribute to culture, strength, talent, economy, and humanity. I can’t stop thinking about that, and at the same time, I can’t stop thinking about the pain of my homeland. Seeing the suffering and uncertainty in Colombia, my country, leaves me speechless,” Karol added.
