Oscar award winner Common and singer Andra Day took the stage at the 2018 Oscars [6] to perform "Stand Up For Something," their empowering duet from 2017's biographical drama, Marshall. The duo was joined by 10 activists [7] who helped deliver a message of unity and hope for a better future in the face of adversity. The track is also nominated for best original song [8], and if their powerful performance is any indication, it's certainly worthy of taking home the gold. Grab a tissue and watch it in full above.
