A throng of Celebrities joined Black Lives Matter (BLM) rallies over the weekend in the wake of the death of George Floyd.

Meanwhile, Game of Thrones star Sophie Turner attended a Black Lives Matter with her husband singer Joe Jonas in what appeared to be Northern California’s Mammoth Lake, according to Daily Mail.
The actress, who is pregnant, was seen wielding a sign, which read, “White Silence is Violence.”

Actress Milla Jovovich also joined a Black Lives Matter rally in Los Angeles — joined by her 12-year-old daughter — over the weekend.
“As parents, my husband and I wanted to help our eldest daughter raise her voice in protest as well and feel like a real part of this incredible movement for justice that’s happening all over the world in support of #blacklivesmatter,” said Jovovich, who went on to “urge all parents” to have their kids participate in BLM protests as well.
Singer Pink shared a photo to her Instagram page showing that she, too, joined in on a BLM protest, wearing a t-shirt that paid homage to civil rights activist Rosa Parks.
The rest of Pink’s post was made up of hashtags, which included, [Black Lives Matter], [All Lives Can’t Matter Until Black Lives Matter], [If You Don’t Stand For Something You Will Fall For Anything], [Justice For George Floyd], and [White Privilege].
Singer Billie Eilish was also spotted in Los Angeles over the weekend, brandishing a sign, which read, “Stop Killing Black People.”
A week earlier, after rioters set cities across the country on fire, Eilish took to social media to rant about “white privilege,” telling white people that “you are privileged whether you like it or not,” and claiming that black people get killed “just for being black.”

“Just beautiful,” said Tinashe to E! News of the BLM protest. “There were people handing out waters everywhere you went, and snacks and hand sanitizer and people were singing songs — it just had such a spirit of togetherness and unity!”
