<p><a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/lee-greenwood-proud-to-be-an-american-singer-latest-to-pull-out-of-nra-weekend" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Lee Greenwood</a> issued a dire warning about America&#8217;s future if the trend of canceling artists continues following attempts to cancel <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jason-aldeans-try-that-in-a-small-town-shoots-to-number-one-amid-backlash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jason Aldean</a> over the music video for &#8220;Try That in a Small Town,&#8221; which critics claimed was &#8220;pro-lynching.&#8221;</p>
<p>The 80-year-old country music said &#8220;Freedom of expression is under attack&#8221; in an <a href="https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/cancel-culture-mob-attacked-jason-aldean-they-came-god-bless-usa-they-cant-cancel-all-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener">op-ed</a> headlined, &#8220;Cancel culture mob attacked Jason Aldean. They came for &#8216;God Bless the USA.&#8217; But they can&#8217;t cancel all of us.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The latest &#8216;cancel culture&#8217; attack has struck directly through the heart of country music as the mob has come for one of our most popular current stars, Jason Aldean,&#8221; the &#8220;God Bless the USA&#8221; singer wrote.</p>
<p>&#8220;Make no mistake, this isn&#8217;t just about Jason — who is a friend, and I&#8217;m also a fan — this is about all of us in country music,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Freedom of expression is under attack. We are increasingly seeing it throughout our culture. Yet, freedom of speech and creative expression are essential to a free country — it&#8217;s the American way of life.&#8221;</p>

<p>&#8220;Canceling artists is anti-American, it&#8217;s insidious and if it gains a foothold, it will take another generation to weed it out,&#8221; Greenwood continued, noting his own experience of being &#8220;canceled&#8221; and &#8220;terminated&#8221; from the National Endowment of the Arts one year into President Joe Biden&#8217;s administration.</p>
<p>The country singer said no reason was given but he suspected it was because he refused to &#8220;demand&#8221; former President Donald Trump stop playing his song &#8220;God Bless the USA&#8221; at Trump rallies.</p>
<p>&#8220;The reason I won&#8217;t give in, and the reason Jason Aldean won&#8217;t back down, is we know how this ends,&#8221; Greenwood wrote. &#8220;We must ensure that we don&#8217;t allow cancel culture to take our freedom of expression away. In response to the cancel culture, I&#8217;m committing the rest of my life to freedom of expression, to country music, and to America&#8217;s veterans who&#8217;ve died and served to protect those freedoms.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We must send a message to every queller of free speech that their actions are not welcome here and as my song says, &#8216;… that the flag still stands for freedom, and they can’t take that away,'&#8221; he added. &#8220;May God bless our country music artists, our Veterans, and may God Bless the USA.&#8221;</p>
<p>The country star&#8217;s piece included details about his latest project for what his website called &#8220;Concerts 4 A Cause&#8221; a mission &#8220;to send 50,000 VETERANS to movie theaters&#8221; in America for free on Veteran&#8217;s Day for a theatrical premiere of a star-studded country concert.
