Bruce Springsteen Cancels North Carolina Concert to Protest Anti-LGBTQ Law
Bruce Springsteen cancelled his concert in Greensboro, N.C. scheduled for Sunday (April 10), after North Carolina passed an anti-LGTBQ law. The bill, officially titled Public Facilities Privacy & Security Act, restricts transgender people from using bathrooms and lockers that doesn't match their biological sex on their birth certificate.
After learning the news, Springsteen issued a statement explaining why he decided to take a stance. "Taking all of this into account, I feel that this is a time for me and the band to show solidarity for those freedom fighters," the rocker said. Fans will be able to receive a ticket refund for the concert.
