Melissa Barrera Breaks Silence: Denounces All Hatred
Melissa Barrera , fired from the seventh installment of “Scream” for supporting Palestine and criticizing the violence that Israel has exerted on the first, assured that silence is not an option for her.
This afternoon, through her Instagram account, the Monterrey actress stressed that she will continue to support those who need it most, in addition to advocating for peace .
This week it was reported that Melissa would have been removed from the new installment of “Scream” for comments that, for the saga’s production company, were anti-Semitic.
The actress of the Mexican films “Shake Your Sorrows” and “Twice You” would have criticized Israel’s actions and described the attack on Gaza as genocide. This would have upset production company executives, who decided to terminate the person who had accompanied them in previous installments of the saga.
Today he has used his social networks again to emphasize his position on the war conflict , without ever mentioning the film.
“ I firmly condemn all manifestations of hostility and partiality, emanating from any group, taking a resolute stand against animosity and bias.
“As an individual with a heritage rooted in Latin American culture and as a distinguished ambassador of Mexico, I acknowledge the significance of the platform entrusted to me. This bestowed privilege allows me to elevate my voice, engaging with crucial issues and advocating for the marginalized within this community.
I am committed to fostering consciousness and extending aid to individuals, irrespective of their religious beliefs, racial heritage, ethnic origins, gender, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status.
He underscores the principle that no governing entity should be immune to critique, expressing his fervent hope for a cessation of further loss of life.
“I will persist in aiding those in greatest need and continue to champion the cause of peace and security, human rights, and freedom. I am resolute in utilizing my voice and steadfastly opposing silence in the presence of injustice and discrimination.
In “Scream”, Barrera plays Samantha Carpenter, daughter of the original murderer of the saga, as well as sister of Tara, played by Jenna Ortega , who for work reasons will not be able to be in the new film installment either.
