【题目】 Benin-born musician Angelique Kidjo has won a major human rights award, along with three African youth activist movements. The groups are Y’en a marre (Fed Up), le Balai Citoyen (The Citizen’s Broom), and Lutte pour Changement (LUCHA).

The organization Amnesty Internationalannounced the winners on Wednesday. It praised Kidjo and the groups for their work in Africa and around the world. Amnesty says the award honors those who have shown unusual courage in standing up to unfair. It says winners also influence others to act the same.

The Amnesty International honor is called the Ambassador of Conscience Award. Past winners include leaders Nelson Mandela and Aung San Suu Kyi. Artists who have been honored including U2 band leader Bono and singer Joan Baez.

Angelique Kidjo fled Benin in the 1980s after being pressured to perform for the country’s repressive government. She has since gained worldwide fame both for her music and her activism(行动主义). She has worked to support free expression, education for young women and birth certificates for children. She has lived in New York City for many years. She has also won a Grammy award for her music. She said, “Music helps her spread her messages of freedom and human dignity. I can’t be in everyone’s home physically but my music will be there. And that’s the power of an artist, compared to a politician. Because no one can give a speech as brilliant as what we can put on a CD. I have hope that African nations struggling with corruption can solve their problems through democratic(民主的) methods.” Kidjo said the honor will help her stay active in human rights issues.
