Neil Young expresses apprehension about potential difficulties in re-entering the U.S. following his European tour this summer due to his vocal criticism of President Donald Trump and his Canadian nationality.
When I travel to Europe to perform music, I might face consequences like being banned or imprisoned if I discuss Donald J. Trump, as it appears that the Trump administration could deport student activists,” Young wrote on his website on Tuesday. This suggests a possible reference to the Trump administration’s actions against student activists.
In June, Neil Young will kick off his European tour as part of his upcoming schedule, followed by U.S. shows starting in Charlotte from August onwards. Neil announced that he had become a U.S. citizen in 2020, but it seems he remains concerned about whether this would provide sufficient protection for him.
If I return from Europe and am prohibited from entering the U.S., it means I won’t be able to perform during my tour here,” Young wrote. “This is happening more often now as countries have updated their guidelines for those re-entering America. Here’s the kicker: if you criticize Trump or his administration, there’s a chance you might be denied entry into the U.S. This applies to Canadians and possibly even dual citizens like myself. We’ll all discover the truth together.
Among numerous musicians, Young is one who has expressed criticism towards Trump following his re-election in November. In January, Selena Gomez shared a tearful video expressing concern over the Trump administration’s deportation of undocumented immigrants. During the same month, Madonna publicly denounced Trump, stating that his administration was systematically eroding the freedoms we have fought for. Similarly, Billie Eilish voiced her opposition during one of her concerts post-election, addressing the audience about a president who deeply dislikes women.
Young wrote, ‘If my belief that Donald Trump is the poorest president in our nation’s illustrious history would prevent me from returning, it raises questions about liberty itself.’ I hold deep affection for America, its citizens, its tunes, and its traditions.
It appears, based on the recent actions of our U.S. administration, that individuals expressing their own views freely could potentially be targeted under a nonexistent Trump-related rule,” Young noted in his correspondence. He concluded by stating, “One nation, unified, striving for Liberty and Freedom for all. Don’t forget that?” This way, I tried to maintain the original meaning while making it more accessible and natural to read.
