In light of the recent national police shootings, musician Alicia Keys has partnered with fellow entertainers to spearhead an industry-wide call to action. The We Are Here Movement is a progressive effort led by Keys that endeavors to bring awareness to human rights, civil rights, and climate change.

Alicia Keys is no stranger to activism. Her philanthropic efforts include being an outspoken advocate of exploited children, as well as a strong proponent of women’s rights since the early 2000’s.

With Keys’ consistent background of social action, it was only fitting that she performed “Girl on Fire” during a historical Democratic National Convention that nominated its first female candidate to the highest office in the land.
