00:00I'm gonna say ice out on the Grammy Awards red carpet where music is expected
00:13to take center stage above all else a quiet protest made its way into the
00:18spotlight not through chance or banners but through a small pin bearing the
00:23words ice out we're not savage we're not animals we're not aliens we are humans
00:34and we are Americans a number of stars and guests expressed their rejection of
00:42the actions carried out by US immigration and customs enforcement amid
00:47intensified campaigns against immigrants in several American regions campaigns
00:52that have resulted in casualties and arrests and fueled growing political and
00:57public tension our voices really do matter and the people matter and guys is
01:07all I want to say sorry this year's Grammy ceremony held in Los Angeles reflects how
01:16artists are increasingly using their global visibility not only to celebrate
01:22musical creativity but also as a platform to defend humanitarian causes and
01:27confront the current political challenges facing the United States
