President Barack Obama, in a video at the Grammys on Sunday, asked artists to use their influence to change attitudes about sexual violence.
“Artists have a unique power to change minds and attitudes, and get us thinking and talking about what matters,” Obama said. He asked them to go to the “It’s on Us” website and take its pledge against sexual violence, and to ask their fans to do it too.
The campaign has held events on campuses around the country to highlight the importance of bystander intervention to prevent attacks, and plans to expand with more events this spring.
