Beyonce has issued a video message to the public, stating that we need justice for George Floyd.
“We’re broken and we’re disgusted,” Bey says via her Instagram account. “We cannot normalize this pain. I’m not only speaking to people of color. If you’re white, Black, Brown and anything in between, I’m sure you feel hopeless by the racism going on in America right now.”
She continued, “No more senseless killings of human beings. No more seeing people of color as less than human. We can no longer look away. George is all of our family and humanity. He is our family because he is a fellow American.
“There have been too many times that we’ve seen these violent killings and no consequences,” she said. “Yes, someone’s been charged, but justice is far from being achieved.”
Many celebrities have stepped forward to defend the senseless killing of Black men and women across the county, including her husband, Jay-Z.
