Hollywood actor Johnny Depp raised his voice on the death of George Floyd and said that it is time to fight against the 'racism and Judgmental ugliness' and says it is no longer an option to make sense of what is senseless. ##
The 'Pirates Of The Caribbean' star took to his Instagram handle to post a message along with a video of an American rapper, actor, activist Killer Mike on the death of a black man George Floyd by a policeman, Derek Chauvin which resulted in the unrest in the US to stand with solidarity with the Black Community. ##
Depp wrote, "As the majority of American people, our global community and our extended family of humans helplessly watched a man die on television… I too, was exposed to the atrocity of blatant barbarism, ruthless cruelty, and unmitigated lack of humanity,” he said.##
“A handcuffed man, pleading for his life lay prone with the full weight of a man sworn to defend the peace on his neck. The victim of this heinous act of cowardice, George Floyd, told the officers that he could not breathe. As he called for his dead mother, how could our collective hearts not break as his face was ground and mashed firmly into the pavement by those sworn to protect him, and all of us? Justice, I desperately hope, will address the horror of Officer Chauvin’s nonchalance and indifference to his participation in the agony, suffering, and ultimately the murder of our fellow traveler George Floyd in a grotesque illustration of the abuse of power!!!,” he added. ##
He further wrote that "there is no way to make sense of what is senseless. There is no way to restore a life that has been taken. Just as there is no way to un-break a heart that is broken".##
"What we can do is make a vow to ourselves that racism and the ignorance inherent in such judgmental ugliness that it gives birth to, is NO LONGER AN OPTION!!! THERE MUST BE A CHANGE!!! DEMAND IT!!!!"##
Johnny Depp also gave a special shout-out to his “dear friend and brother” Killer Mike of Run The Jewels.
"My dear friend and brother, Killer Mike - (Run The Jewels), is a brilliant musician, artist, activist for social justice and the son of an Atlanta Policeman. He is also, one of the kindest, most caring and loving human beings that I’ve ever had the pleasure and honor to know!!! I beg everyone to listen to the remarks of this true statesman. True statesmen have never been so needed, and they’ve never been in such short supply," he concluded.##

FYI, a 46-year aged black man died last month after a white police officer, Derek Chauvin pressed his knee to Floyd's neck for almost nine minutes while Floyd was handcuffed face down in the street. Chauvin has been arrested and charged with three-degree murder and manslaughter.##
