The 33-year-old wrote alongside the moving photo, "It's you and me on a mission to create a kinder and more peaceful world. The #WeAreHere Movement begins today."
Alicia went on to direct her followers to an interview conducted with Nick Kristof in the New York Times Magazine.
In the interview, Alicia explained her logic behind the strip off, a rare intimate moment for the singer.

"It's time to get people's attention,” Alicia told the NYT magazine. "People won't be able to ignore this visual.”
The peace sign on her burgeoning baby bump -- Alicia's second child is due in December -- also speaks of her worry for her children's futures and the world that they will inherit.

Alicia's new aim, it appears, is to leverage her 30 million Facebook fans and 20 million Twitter followers for good; she wants to be a 'moral voice as well as a musical one.'
Her latest song, 'We Are Here,' already addresses many of the themes Alicia speaks to with the new movement: poverty, injustice and racism.
Alicia has picked out 12 charities that she wants her fans to help support (see the full list below). The singer herself has put her money where her mouth is, donating $1 million of her own money to be divided among these charities to help get the process started.
