Alicia Keys, while accepting the Dr. Dre Global Impact Award at the Grammys, delivered a powerful speech addressing the impact of Donald Trump's administration on diversity and inclusion in the arts. She emphasized that the assault on these values should not silence the range of voices that enrich American culture. Key moments of the night included significant wins for women and representation in music, highlighting the theme of diversity in the industry, which contrasted starkly with the political climate aiming to restrict these advancements.
This is not the time to shut down the diversity of voices. We've seen on this stage talented, hardworking people from different backgrounds with different points of view, and it changes the game.
DEI is not a threat; it's a gift. And the more voices, the more powerful the sound.
