What is the blue square on The Voice?
Many viewers of The Voice may have noticed a small blue square on their screen during the show.
The NBC show’s host, Carson Daly, explained that the square “takes up 2.4 per cent of your screen” and it represents the Jewish population in the USA.
Carson described the blue square as an “emoji” on the show.
The Voice stands up to Jewish hate
The blue square emoji on The Voice shows support for the Jewish community.
Carson Daly said that Jewish people in the states are victims of 55 percent of all religious hate crimes including vandalism, violence, and threats.
He added: “In response to rising anti-semitism in the US, a national campaign is launching today called Stand Up To Jewish Hate…”
The show highlighted #standuptojewishhate which is a hashtag to be shared online to raise awareness.
The blue square is shared on social media to show support and encourage others to stand up for the cause.
The campaign was launched by Patriots owner Robert Kraft.
Antisemitism is not just the Jewish community’s issue. It’s everybody’s. Retweet this video with #🟦 to show your support. #StandUpToJewishHate
