27 Celebrities Who Posted About Showing Up To The George Floyd Protests

Over the weekend, people protested in cities across the nation and even in other nations, after the murder of George Floyd by Officer Derek Chauvin in Minneapolis. The violent escalation of the police officers who first met protests last week drew even more attention, especially when compared to how cops treated white lockdown protestors earlier this month.

Most protests have been peaceful, as people chant, kneel, dance, and walk for miles to spread the message that Black Lives Matter. Many cops have responded with rubber bullets, tear gas, and aggression, creating ever more dangerous situations, even driving into crowds.

It’s risky (and important) to be out there under these conditions, which might be why people are appreciating it when celebrities show up to protests.

There were probably some who weren’t spotted or who didn’t post about their attendance, but many celebs did use their platform to spread the message and show their support. Here are the ones who attended protests this weekend:
