Taylor Swift wore Leviev diamonds in photos in Vanity Fair's September
2015 edition. Israeli billionaire Lev Leviev's companies have built
illegal Israeli settlements on Palestinian land, and have been
implicated in human rights abuses in Angola's diamond industry.
Organizations,
governments and Hollywood stars have severed ties with Leviev over his
companies' unethical business practices. Seven organizations wrote to
Ms. Swift in September asking her to publicly distance herself from
Leviev (https://adalahny.org/document/1358/se...).
Ms.
Swift and her team have not responded to that email or to our repeated
follow-up calls. This video reiterates our request to Taylor Swift.
Taylor
Swift claims that she keeps it real and that 'fakers are going to fake'
-- yet she's wearing Leviev conflict diamonds in Vanity Fair and has to
date failed to publicly distance herself from Leviev's companies' human
rights abuses. Taylor Swift, don’t support crimes against Palestinians
and Angolans!
