Sinéad O'Connor Always Knew That Black Lives Mattered

Sinéad O’Connor explained the point of her career in her 2021 memoir: “Everyone wants a pop star. See? But I am a protest singer.” And her protests were epic. After O’Connor’s death on Wednesday at age 56, there were many recollections of her 1992 appearance on Saturday Night Live, when, in a carefully plotted effort […]

P.S. Re 1992 tearing up of her abusive mother's photo of the Pope.

My mom grew up Irish Catholic in Boston. She'd told me about priests abusing kids in her parish, years before, in the 1980s. I knew. We knew. The Catholics who called NBC to get Sinead "cancelled"? They knew she was telling the truth.

As Sinead prophetically wrote in The Emperor's New Clothes,

"Everyone can see what's going on
They laugh 'cause they know they're untouchable
Not because what I said was wrong" #SineadWasRight

@SazeracLA @LeaBug I saw that performance on TV and was shocked. I was currently attending a Catholic high school. That night began my break from the Church. She showed me what I hadn’t been seeing all those years. #Sinead #SineadWasRight #SineadOConnor

I remember seeing this as it happened, just a normal Saturday night and late-night #tv... Afterward, I awakened my sleeping boyfriend (now Spousal Unit) and shrieked about what had just transpired at 30 Rock -- noting that Sinéad was right.

After her powerful rendition of Marley's anti-white supremacist "War" on SNL, #SineadOConnor warned of the Catholic Church's sexual abuse of children, tearing up a photo of the Pope.

Lorne Michaels turned off the "applause" sign. Madonna mocked her by tearing up a photo of Joey Buttafuoco. NBC banned her. But #SineadWasRight

In 2021, she had no regrets. "I'm not sorry I did it...But it was very traumatizing. It was open season on treating me like a crazy b-tch."
