New: Pink debuted the music video for her latest single What About Us online on Wednesday
Powerful: The video features the singer and a troop of dancers in a post-apocalyptic world
The clip opens showing angst-ridden bystanders and red-and-blue emergency lights with chants of 'shut it down' as Pink gets the sides of her head shaved.
The scene then cuts to an abandoned parking lot with cop cars and a grounded police helicopter nearby.
With her hair falling over her face in corkscrew curls, the 37-year-old singer begins to sing as she leans on her backup dancers with fluid motion as they make seamless formations.
Smooth: The star and her dance squad seamlessly make their way through a series of formations
Edgy: Another setup has Pink with an unconventional triple ponytail sitting near an empty diner
Another setup shows the star, born Alecia Moore, in an empty diner with her hair in an edgy triple ponytail. She dons a black hoodie and gold sequined pants as she is joined by dancers who hit their sharp moves with excellent execution.
The dance battle theme continues on a field where two groups of hoofers appear to be ready to face off.
Instead, they unite through the power of dance before melding together to strike an ending pose, sure to symbolize harmony.
Brutality: The video appears to address recent tensions between police and civilians
