The Secret Behind The White Roses On the 2018 Brits Red Carpet!

Britain's biggest music stars descended upon the O2 Arena in London for the country's biggest night in music, 2018 BRIT Awards. Many of whom honored the Time's Up movement on the red carpet by carrying or wearing white roses.

The two women penned an open letter to music stars before the event: "We choose the white rose because historically it stands for hope, peace, sympathy and resistance," they wrote. "The world is listening. Wear a white rose."

Time’s Up is not a traditional advocacy organization. According to the New York Times, it’s a leaderless collective made up of volunteers who form working groups to address specific issues related to sexual harassment and inequality in the workplace.

Although it was inspired in part by the #MeToo movement, Time’s Up hopes to expand the conversation about sexual harassment beyond just the accusers of powerful men, and include more advocacy for working-class women, whose experiences with sexual misconduct are often overlooked.
