In response to the fatal shootings by police officers in Louisiana and Minnesota, actor Michael B Jordon has called for unity.
The 29-year-old "Creed" star took to Instagram to share a touching post.
"The fact is Alton Sterling and Philando Castile were not unfortunate accidents. These are just a few of the countless incidents of violent neglect, poor training and lack of accountability that clearly illustrate one thing: Black people are being disproportionally dehumanized and murdered, this must stop!
"I care about the safety of my black brothers and sisters and my blue ones too," Jordon wrote.
He also expressed sympathy for the five Dallas police officers who were shot Thursday night.
"There are no adequate words for the fallen officers in Dallas. From the bottom of my heart, I thank them for protecting the peaceful protesters, their courage and effort to support us is what we need more of.
"This hits close to home. It could have easily been myself, my little brother, my dad, one of my friends, or any of us," the actor added.
Jordon admitted that finding solutions may not be easy, but said "violence is not the answer."
"This is the time to unify; our communities, our churches and our homes. My mission is to channel my anger and energy - along with my love and hope for the future into actively finding solutions. Change will take all of us, we can no longer say or do...Nothing."
Celebrities including Beyonce, Halle Berry, Kate Hudson, Jay Z, Miguel, and more have also condemned the shootings.
