BALTIMORE, MARYLAND: Marissa George, one of the contestants ready to appear on 'Love Is Blind' Season 7 is a 32-year-old lawyer. In May 2024, she graduated from law school. Marissa isn't afraid of voicing her opinions, in November 2023, she took to her Instagram Story to raise awareness about the war in Palestine. 

"Silence is violence! Everyone needs to raise awareness about the genocides in Palestine, Sudan, the Congo, and other places around the world. If you remain silent and uninformed, you contribute to the problem. Recognize that your taxes support violence/the death of millions," she started by writing.

The Baltimore native added, "Understand the American privilege of being able to ignore the atrocities. We need to challenge the direct support our administration is providing to Israel's actions and consider the implications for our own country. Silence is complicity, it's time to open your eyes and take action."

"We can no longer use the excuse of "we didn't know it was happening." Everything you need to know is in your hands," she concluded.
