These incidents have compelled many celebrities to voice out messages of peace and harmony.
The "Almost Famous" star took to Instagram to share the poem. She specifically noted Sterling, Castile, Orlando's Pulse nightclub massacre, the Dallas shootings, and recent terror attacks around the world.
"These last few months have brought so much sadness. From Alton Sterling, Philando Castile, Orlando shooting, Dallas, to terrorist attacks of Bangladesh, Istanbul, Baghdad, Somalia," the 37-year-old captioned the poem.
The poem linked the tragedies with a phrase referring to a bullet.
"When the silver drops who wins / Shot in the dark / Why, We can't let fear rule / For then we are too responsible for a world so cruel / Fear is who takes the shot in the dark / And we must stop sitting back and watching this silver drop," the poem read.
