feature: “fuck off isis” – yasiin bey speaks frankly on paris attacks

During a conversation with Ferrari Sheppard for A Country Called Earth (taking place not long after Friday’s Paris attacks), Yasiin Bey had some frank words to say about terrorism and a lack of compassion in the world; stating, “Love must and will prevail. I don’t care how corny it sounds”. “The world has been in a state of emergency. The problem is not Islam [or] organized religion. The problem is people’s lack of compassion and care for themselves and their fellow human beings. We don’t treat each other well. We need to treat each other better,” adds the musician and activist.
