Nick Cannon joined protestors in Minneapolis this weekend to fight for justice for George Floyd after he was killed by police on camera. On Friday (May 29th), Nick posted photos of himself attending these rallies in Minneapolis, the city where George was killed. Nick donned a black mask and hoodie that reads, "Please I Can't Breathe," some of George Floyd's last words as he was being crushed by a police officer while three others looked on. "Stop Killing Us!" he urged in one of his posts. "We All Tired of it...." he said in another.

"BUT THEY GON HEAR US LOUD AND CLEAR!!!" he wrote on another post. "Til Earth and Heaven Rings.”

Nick also took to Twitter to the following day to address the situation going on in America. "Made up my mind a long time ago," he wrote. "I’m ready to die bout this!!"

"So many of my ancestors have put their lives on the line for us," he continued in a separate tweet, "and I’m ready and willing to join them at anytime, any cost, for my people but I’m not going out without a fight! #REVOLUTION is here!"
