Brandi Carlile's concert, held in Minneapolis, Minnesota, raised more than $600,000 to support families affected by the actions of US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and border patrols. The event, titled 'Be Human: A Concert for Minneapolis', took place at the Target Center and was attended by over 12,000 fans. This initiative aimed not only to raise funds but also to highlight the ongoing struggles faced by many families in the community due to federal immigration enforcement policies.

Carlile, a Grammy-winning artist from Washington State, used the platform to amplify the message of compassion and support for those affected by ICE, emphasizing the importance of community solidarity. She shared her experience on social media, expressing deep inspiration from the resilience shown by the Minnesota community during the concert, which was both a testament to their strength and a rallying call for continued advocacy.

In addition to the concert's proceeds, Carlile also contributed to the cause through merchandise sales, including T-shirts emblazoned with the message “Be Human.” The funds raised will go to the Minnesota-based Advocates for Human Rights organization, which is committed to providing legal assistance and support for families in need, underlining the critical intersection of art and activism in addressing social justice issues.
