Taylor Swift, Gabrielle Union, & More Celebs Demand Justice For Ahmaud Arbery — Look!

Celebs are speaking out about the senseless killing of Ahmaud Arbery.

As we reported, Twitter has been demanding justice for the 25-year-old after a video showing his fatal shooting started circulating on social media this week. While the case is reportedly headed to a grand jury, authorities have yet to arrest the men who chased Arbery down and shot him — and guess what, one of those men is a former local police officer.

Now, celebs like LeBron James, Gabrielle Union, and Taylor Swift are using their online platforms to help spread the word.

See some of the strong reactions (below):

LeBron James:

“We’re literally hunted EVERYDAY/EVERYTIME we step foot outside the comfort of our homes! Can’t even go for a damn jog man! Like WTF man are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?!? No man fr ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!! I’m sorry Ahmaud(Rest In Paradise) and my prayers and blessings sent to the…..heavens above to your family!!”

Gabrielle Union:

“Ahmaud Arbery. Went for a jog. Chased down. Hunted. Murdered. Its been months and his killers walk free. I dont want to beg, plead, reason, cry, or scream for you to see us as worthy of our breath. If you need to be cajoled into empathy, you are not who you think you are. I don’t want to wonder if you see our humanity. What do you see when you cast your eyes on us? We are worthy of peace, joy, grace, compassion, and every damn protection we are afforded by existing. We shot past sick and tired a long time ago. May God hold Ahmaud Arbery’s family and loved ones up to the light of goodness and hold them there. We keep fighting. We will not stop. There will be justice.”
