Willow Smith is against "cancel culture"

Willow Smith is opposed to the "cancel culture", this way of making disappear, by making persona non grata, all those who have had reprehensible behavior and words, without giving them the chance to make amends. According to Will Smith's daughter, who was speaking on her mom Jada Pinkett's show, Red Table Talk , this kind of method has no interest.

“I see people who humiliate other people, who say terrible things about them, for what they said or what they did not say. But I think that if you really want to change, shaming people does not lead to any learning, ”she said.
