Susan Sarandon has been dropped by her agency UTA after making controversial comments about Jews at a pro-Palestinian rally.
She claimed American Jews were “getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country” and joined in chanting for Palestine to be free.
“A UTA spokesperson told Page Six Tuesday the agency is no longer representing Sarandon,” Page Six reported.
“Sources say several staffers at UTA were extremely hurt by Sarandon’s comments.”
After her comments, she was criticized by an American Muslim reformer who highlighted the freedoms and opportunities available to Muslims in America.
“Let me tell you what it means to be Muslim in America,” Muslim reformer Asra Nomani said.
“Let me give you ‘a taste’ of what it ‘feels like” to be a Muslim in America: My dad didn’t have to become a second-class indentured servant to one of the many tyrants of Muslim countries that use immigrants from India, like my family, as essential slaves.”
““He got rejected first for tenure but being Muslim in America meant he got a right like everybody got — his right to appeal and guess what? He won and he became a full professor.”
“That’s what it means to be Muslim in America,” she continued. “You get your full rights…”
“My mom? Being Muslim in America meant she got to live FREE with the wind in her hair, like [Alinejad Masih] fights for women in the Muslim nation of Iran to be able to enjoy. And what did living free mean for my mom as a Muslim in America? It meant in 1981 she got to start a business on High Street in downtown Morgantown, called Ain’s International. That is something that [Ensaf Haidar] wished women could have had the right to do in the Muslim nation of Saudi Arabia.”
“But guess what? That entrepreneurship and financial independence is denied Muslim women in so many Muslim countries,” she pointed out.
“In another ‘taste’ of being Muslim in America? My family got a pathway to citizenship. You think the Muslim dictatorship of Qatar allows a pathway to citizenship for Muslim slaves, servants or Palestinian Muslims? Hell no.”
“America? My family waited, took the test, studied the constitution and we are citizens — hallelujah!” she celebrated.
She concluded, “Please don’t minimize the experience of Jewish Americans by sanitizing the hell that it is for Muslims living in Muslim countries and vilifying America for the life — and freedoms — she offers Muslims like my family. Go, live like a Muslim woman in a Muslim country. You will come back to America and kiss the land beneath your feet.”
