Beyoncé has chimed in once more on the police killing of George Floyd, this time with a message about how to properly fight for justice. As folks across the country and around the world continue to protest police brutality and racial injustice in the wake of George’s murder, many have come forward to criticize the manner in which some have chosen to express their outrage. Some expressed their disapproval for looting and violence, while others pointed out that the focus should be on the injustice and not how some are choosing to fight against it. On Wednesday (June 3rd), Beyoncé posted a photo of a massive crowd of protestors gathered in Minneapolis as they marched for George Floyd, and included a message about seeking justice.
“The world came together for George Floyd,” she wrote. “We know there is a long road ahead. Let’s remain aligned and focused in our call for real justice.” Beyoncé shared this message shortly after with aiding and abetting second degree murder and manslaughter.
