Macklemore Appears In Anti-Homophobia PSA

Macklemore Appears In Anti-Homophobia PSA

Desire Thompson Posted February 28, 2013

You Can Play, an organization devoted to gay men and women within the sports world, enlisted Macklemore for their latest PSA. The “Thrift Shop” rapper doesn’t discriminate when it comes to fashion or belittling others due to their sexual orientation. “You know someone who’s gay. Athletes musicians and people in your life, that just haven’t told you yet.” You Can Play’s other straight alliances include The Colorado Mammoths and Nashville Predators co-owner W. Brett Wilson. Macklemore adds that LGBT athletes should be respected for their talents. "It doesn't matter; it can be baseball, football basketball, soccer piano and instrument. If you have the skills talent and heart you can play." Check out the PSA above.
