I fully support this petition because no one deserves to be bullied, harassed, or threatened online. The behavior that has been displayed toward members of the Haitian community, women, and individuals in the LGBT community is unacceptable. Using a platform to spread hate, make threats, or cause emotional harm to others — including artists like Marc D and many others — should not be normalized.
Freedom of speech does not mean freedom to intimidate or traumatize people. Social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram should be spaces where people feel safe to express themselves without fear of harassment.
Accountability matters. Respect matters. Our communities deserve better.
Ed supported: Say no to bullying, harassment and threateningI’m from Trinidad, and I’m tired of Nicki Minaj using Trinidadian identity when it suits her while embarrassing the culture on a global stage. She benefits from Caribbean roots, accent, and imagery, but consistently moves in ways that contradict the values of accountability, community, and respect that many of us were raised with.
Nicki Minaj has repeatedly defended and protected men accused or convicted of serious sexual crimes, including her husband, instead of standing with victims. She has used her massive platform to intimidate critics and journalists, harass other women in the industry, and silence people who speak out. On top of that, she spread blatant COVID-19 misinformation to millions, refusing to take responsibility even when public health officials had to correct her claims.
This isn’t “being misunderstood.” This is a pattern of choosing ego over truth and loyalty to harmful people over basic decency. Fame doesn’t excuse that. Influence makes it worse.
When people say she should be deported back to Trinidad, it’s not about immigration law, it’s about accountability. If you’re going to constantly shout out Trinidad, wave the flag, and profit off Caribbean culture, then you should be held to the standards that come with it. You don’t get to pick and choose the parts of your identity that benefit you while ignoring the responsibility that comes with representing millions of people.
Nicki Minaj doesn’t just represent herself anymore, and the way she moves reflects badly on the culture she claims. If you’re going to claim Trinidad so loudly, then stand on principles, or stop using us as a brand
Rokia supported: Deport Nicki Minaj back to TrinidadAs an afro latina and caribeña who grew up listening to Nicki’s music and feeling empowered by her art and inspired by her style, I’m appalled by her recent claims. I stopped being a “barb” a long time ago due to her transphobia, apologist nature, misogyny and overall downgrade as a person and artist, but now, more than ever, I feel that Nicki the Homophobic Barbie has GOT to go. We need to make an example out of her.
