Alicia Keys’ Personal Message to Egypt

As you all know, there is something historical and disturbing taking place in Egypt, as we speak. Most of us have watched for the past two weeks feeling helpless. Alicia Keys recently took to her blog to express her thoughts on the crisis in Egypt. “When people find themselves caught in a place where their dreams, hopes and ideas have nowhere to breathe or fly, something happens. Something that is so natural and powerful, like the water we seek when thirsty, or the food we need when hungry takes over. This energy to change, to move in a different direction produces a voice—a voice loud and strong enough to vibrate and shake the wall that attempts to oppress the will of the masses and the fight for the future. From that first small voice that dared to speak, to resist, to protest – a small, but important insult has now grown into a voice of millions that cannot and will not be silenced.” Read Keys’s whole message here.
