Small and subtle, the blue ribbons worn by many celebrities at the Oscars nonetheless had an important message: support refugees.
Bill Nighy arrives at the Oscars on March 12, 2023, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles.
According to a statement from the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, donning the #WithRefugees ribbons Sunday “sends a powerful visual message that everyone has the right to seek safety, whoever, wherever, whenever they are.”The ribbons were made by Knotty Tie Co., which the agency says provides employment, training and education to refugees resettled in the Denver area.
The number of displaced people globally now tops 103 million, a figure augmented by significant factors like Russia’s war in Ukraine, other conflicts around the world and climate change. “My journey started on a boat. I spent a year in a refugee camp,” Quan said. “Somehow, I ended up here on Hollywood’s biggest stage. They say stories like this only happen in the movies. I cannot believe it’s happening to me. This — THIS — is the American dream.”
