Watch as artists like Dej Loaf, Vic Mensa, Janelle Monáe unite with celebrities, activists, and more for an event called #JusticeForFlint on Sunday (Feb. 28). Don't forget to tune in to the live stream on Revolt TV.

Janelle Monáe ("Yoga"), director Ava DuVernay (Selma), Ledisi ("Pieces of Me"), Musiq Soulchild ("teachme"), Jesse Williams (Grey's Anatomy), Dej Loaf ("Back Up"), Jasiri X ("Don't Let Them Get Away With Murder"), director Ryan Coogler (Creed), Royce Da 5'9 ("Detroit Vs.

As a unit, the activists formed Blackout for Human Rights. Despite their different backgrounds and area of expertise in the industry, they came together to fight one cause. The event will be held in the center of all the controversy in Flint.

"Blackout for Human Rights is a collective of filmmakers, artists, activists, musicians, lawyers, tastemakers, religious leaders and concerned citizens who commit their energy and resources to immediately address the staggering level of human rights violations and injustices against fellow Americans throughout the United States," according to blackoutforhumanrights.com.

Thousands of men, women and children were exposed to lead poisoning and other serious health issues after Flint changed its water source. An outcry of responses to the change began in 2014 about the contaminated water, including foul odor, dark color, and bitter taste. The matter has continuously gone down hill. Now two years later, people are still seeking answers and more importantly, clean water.
