He went on to acknowledge how easy it is to fall into hate, saying “the hate gets more powerful with more hate” and urging people to respond with compassion, not animosity, pointing out that “the only thing that is more powerful than hate is love.” His remarks came amid a wave of artists at the ceremony speaking out against immigration enforcement and advocating for dignity for all humans.
