Kehlani speaks out after Cornell performance canceled over views: 'I am anti-genocide'
Kehlani is speaking out after her performance at Cornell University was canceled over what the school described as "hateful views."
The R&B star, 30, in an Instagram video on April 26 said "I am not antisemitic" in response to Cornell scrapping plans for her to headline its "Slope Day" year-end celebration.
Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff said he rescinded Kehlani's invitation after hearing "grave concerns" that a performer "who has espoused antisemitic, anti-Israel sentiments in performances, videos, and on social media" would be featured.
In Kehlani's video, the "After Hours" singer maintained "for the millionth time" that they are not "anti-Jew" but is instead "anti-genocide" and "anti the actions of the Israeli government."
