Celebrities like Michelle Obama, Zoe Saldana, Salma Hayekand millions around the world are demanding justice for George Floyd, a black Minneapolis man who was killed after a police officer held him down with his knee on his neck. In the released recorded video, George was heard saying in his last moments, “I can’t breathe,” as officer Derek Chauvin did not let up ultimately killing the 46-year-old man. Derek and the three other officers were fired and he was arrested and charged a few days after the May 25th death for third-degree murder and manslaughter.

Since George’s death, protests have been happening around the country and even in other international cities such as London and Berlin to demand further justice. The other officers involved have yet to be charged. Eva Longoria posted an image on social media with the caption, “My heart hurts every time I read the news! When will this stop?? Please help our country regain its humanity! We are all humans who deserve to be protected.” The Desperate Housewives actress calls for action to fight for justice for the endless racial discrimination and abuse of the nation.

Cardi B also joins the conversation with her fans and expressed her concern with a thoughtful message, “Enough is enough! What will it take? A civil war? A new president? Violent riots? It’s tired! I’m tired! The country is tired! You don’t put fear in people when you do this you just show how coward YOU ARE! And how America is really not the land of the free!”

JLo used the powerful words of Martin Luther King Jr. to make a statement. “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character...” She then went on to say, “My beautiful friends... This is a matter of humanity!!! Of goodness and basic human kindness and decency!!! My heart is breaking. So many people are hurting right now.”
