Martha Stewart's Granddaughter Called Her Out For Not Speaking Up About ICE. Here's The Text.

“Her generation gives me hope,” the lifestyle icon said.
One member of Gen Alpha wasn’t going to let her famous grandma be a beta.
On Monday, Martha Stewart publicly spoke out against Immigration and Customs Enforcement on Instagram — and credited a blunt text message from her 14-year-old granddaughter, Jude Stewart, as the catalyst.
“Grandaughter Jude wrote me a note yesterday,” Stewart said in the caption of her post. “I took it to heart...”
The image the lifestyle mogul used for her post was a screenshot of a text message conversation she had with Jude. Although Stewart’s end of the chat is edited out, Jude’s response gives enough context clues for most to suss out that the two were likely speaking about Alex Pretti, the 37-year-old intensive care nurse who was fatally shot by federal agents during an ICE protest in Minneapolis on Saturday.
“I’m not sure it’s excusable to not be speaking up right now,” Jude wrote her grandmother.
