In this episode of Halal-ish, we delve into the complex world of celebrity, morality, and the risks of speaking out. From war and poverty to politics and social justice, we explore why some public figures use their platform to speak truth to power, while others choose silence.

Is staying quiet a smart career move or a betrayal of responsibility? Can you really separate the art from the artist when the world is burning? And what happens when speaking out costs you everything?
