Montana Tucker, a recording artist and social media influencer, made a statement at the Grammys by wearing a dress with a banner that read “Bring Them Home,” in support of the 140 Israeli hostages still held by Hamas.
As the granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, Tucker has been actively using her social media platform to raise awareness about the Holocaust and recent events in Israel.
She visited Israel in December 2023 and has been sharing her experiences to combat Holocaust denial and anti-Semitism.

“For me, since October 7, I’ve pretty much taken over my social media to post about what is going on. One year ago, I made a Holocaust educational docu-series called ‘How To Never Forget,’ where I took my followers to Poland and I went to visit Auschwitz, where my grandparents are Holocaust survivors. And you know, that was a year ago, when Holocaust denial was still a thing, and people still deny the Holocaust; anti-Semitism was at an all-time high, even a year ago,” Tucker wrote.
Tucker expressed her deep connection to Israel and the hope that her content will help change people’s perspectives.
“And now, since October 7, the denial that is still there is absolutely terrible and so upsetting. And no matter what I posted, I feel like there was still denial. And so I wanted to physically go to Israel and be there and show, you know, my millions of followers, ‘This is real. This just happened. This didn’t happen 10 years ago, 20 years ago, 100 years ago, this happened less than three months ago when I went and I tried to meet with as many survivors as I could meet with, as many families as I could meet with. For the second time I met with Hersh’s parents and they’re so incredible. And I met with hostages that were released, and I was sad to leave; I didn’t want to leave,” she said.

“I want to be in Israel as much as I can. Israel is the most amazing place in the world. And despite everything that is going on there right now, the people have so much love and hope in them and spirit in them. And I hope with my content, already I’ve seen people’s perspectives changing a little bit, and their eyes are being opened. And that’s all I could ask for,” she said.
