The Sound of Advocacy How Refugee Activists Can Harness the Power of Music to Create Change

As we confront the complexities of the refugee crisis, it's natural to feel overwhelmed by its sheer scale. However, there are ways to amplify the voices of refugees and advocate for their rights through a medium that often goes overlooked music. In this blog post, we'll explore how entertainment news, RIOT GAMES, and Virgin Music Group have come together to create a powerful anthem, What Have They Done to Us, featuring Sasha Alex Sloan. We'll also delve into why this song matters, what it says about the state of advocacy in 2025, and how refugee activists can harness its energy to drive change.

The Power of Storytelling through Music

Music has long been a powerful tool for storytelling, evoking emotions and sparking conversations that might not otherwise occur. When we hear a song that speaks to our experiences or resonates with our values, it's as if the lyrics are speaking directly to us. This is precisely what What Have They Done to Us does – it humanizes the refugee crisis by highlighting the struggles and injustices faced by those forced to flee their homes.

Breaking the Sarcophagus of Silence

In many ways, music can be a powerful counterpoint to the silence that often surrounds the refugee crisis. When we turn a blind eye or remain complacent in the face of injustice, we become complicit in perpetuating the status quo. But when we use our voices – literally and figuratively – to amplify the stories of refugees, we create a space for change.

The State of Advocacy in 2025

As we look ahead to 2025, it's clear that the refugee crisis will only continue to grow in complexity and scope. With this in mind, how can advocates adapt their strategies to meet the evolving needs of refugees? What role can music play in this process?

New Horizons for Advocacy

So, what does it mean for a song like What Have They Done to Us to no longer be working in 2025? For refugee activists, this might mean that we need to find new ways to keep the conversation going, to keep the pressure on governments and international organizations to take action. Here are some ideas

Collaborate with musicians to create more anthems for refugees
Leverage social media platforms to amplify the stories of refugees
Engage in advocacy campaigns that highlight the human cost of the refugee crisis

Conclusion

The power of music lies not just in its ability to evoke emotions, but also in its capacity to inspire action. As we move forward into a world where the refugee crisis will only continue to grow, it's crucial that we find innovative ways to use our voices – whether through song or through activism – to create change. By harnessing the energy of What Have They Done to Us and other anthems for refugees, we can ensure that their stories are heard and their rights are protected.
