Florida fans of Stevie Wonder who want to see the legend sing are going to have to go on a road trip for the near future. During a performance in Quebec City, Canada, on Sunday, the Grammy-winning performer spoke out about the recent acquittal of George Zimmerman and announced he would boycott the state.
"I decided today that until the 'Stand Your Ground' law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again," he told the audience. "As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world."

The map in the linked article shows that he’s boycotting about half the land area of the USA. And ALL of the south, the Floridians that wants see Wonder live will need to take a long trip indeed.
Exactly, he’s not planning on making much money, I guess.
And I care because????????
You would have to be blind not to see that there wasn’t any evidence to convict Zim. Oh wait....
He’s still alive?
No more Ebony and Ivory?
None so blind as those who will not see.
I’ve never seen him and I bet he can say the same about me.

Endless LOVE.
I dunno, I think Stevie has the advantage now.
bwahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Another good reason to move to the sunshine state!
Rappers need to beware too.... Lots of Hispanics living in Florida don't like being sucker punched for the ‘crime’ of walking behind someone .... some will even try to defend themselves if their head is being pounded against concrete.
I’ve been boycotting Stevie Wonder since I first heard him sing.
Does anyone under age 50 e in know who he is? Or care?
I had “Old joke” typed at the start, but got an error and failed to add it to the second reply.
