Artists in Florida are pushing back against a state law that prohibits government agencies from hiring companies that boycott Israel. The law has been in place for years but is now sparking concerns among artists and advocates. Supporters of the economic boycott of Israel argue that it is a nonviolent way to resist what they see as unjust policies towards Palestinians.
