Penn Badgley Shares Message” Following George Floyd’s Death

“I am speaking solely to white people. Especially the loud ones—bc I hear you. And most of all, to myself,” wrote Penn Badgley on Instagram. “We can’t *not* have internalized the racism of our society. Are there other white people we deem “the problem”? I think, the rest of the human family cannot endure our impatience with each other any longer. We have to listen, learn and teach each other. This doesn’t mean social change amounts to emotional work, but it does start there when you wake up, and end there when you go to sleep. Everyday. This is part of what sustains constructive, lasting social change. #justiceforgeorgefloyd #blacklivesmatter.”
