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. However, opponents claim that the campaign veers into antisemitism and aims to delegitimize Israel. Artists are refusing to sign government contracts that contain anti-boycott language, citing concerns about free expression and censorship.
