The music industry went silent Tuesday to call attention to the deaths of George Floyd and other black Americans at the hands of police brutality.

SiriusXM music channels will go silent for three minutes Tuesday at 3 p.m. ET, CEO Jim Meyer said in an internal note shared with USA TODAY. The minutes are meant to mark the terrible history of racism, this tragic moment in time and hope for and demand a better future, the statement reads.

"I pray that looking beyond this day we can all work together to overcome this hatred and division and start to heal the pain and suffering that everybody is feeling in the country," he continued."We owe that to future generations."
