[WATCH] Jamie Foxx Joins Leaders in Minnesota: ‘We’re Not Afraid of the Moment’
Academy Award-winning actor Jamie Foxx joined the front line protests and community leaders in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
Standing with a friend of George Floyd and NBA Champion Stephen Jackson, Foxx spoke to historical incidents and reaching out to mothers who have lost their children to senseless violence and other Black people to bind together.
“All I wanted to do is let you know we not afraid to stand,” Jamie Foxx said. “We are not afraid of the moment. I think what you saw on television, to watch this man plead for his mother. As I sit with my two daughters, my nephews who just came from the grocery store where there was a little thing and I had to say you have to stop that.
“What it does is, it overcomplicates everything as a Black man trying to tell his son or his daughter how to function in life.”
