September 16, 2017 3. Musicians Cancelling St. Louis Shows
-Protests have been taking place in St.Louis, Mo. in the United States after an officer was acquitted of killing Anthony Lamar Smith.
-So far, both U2 and Ed Sheeran have cancelled shows citing safety concerns.
-Bono left the following message on U2's instagram page:
Deeply saddened at what has happened in St. Louis and having to cancel our show tonight….I found myself reading Dr. King’s speech from the National Cathedral and asking myself is this 1968 or 2017? - Bono
“Human progress never rolls in on the wheels of inevitability….we are coming to ask America to be true to the huge promissory note that it signed years ago. And we are coming to engage in dramatic nonviolent action, to call attention to the gulf between promise and fulfillment; to make the invisible visible.”
