Nike cuts ties with Australian brand ambassador over pro-Palestinian posts

LONDON: Nike has ended its partnership with Australian brand ambassador Grace Tame after the activist shared several pro-Palestinian posts on social media. Tame, a long-distance runner and high-profile advocate for survivors of sexual assault, had used her platform in recent months to speak out against Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, describing it as “genocide” and calling for a ceasefire. The American sportswear giant confirmed the decision over the weekend, following growing speculation after it launched a review of Tame’s public statements.
