Kendrick Sampson has been a very present during the protests that have risen following the police-involved death of Minnesota resident George Floyd who died while being knelt on by former cop Derek Chauvin for more than 8 minutes. Kendrick Sampson was involved a scuffle with Los Angeles police during one of the protests where he later confirmed on his Twitter that he had been hit with batons and rubber bullets numerous times.

Madonna has been vocal as well regarding her support of the Black Lives Matter movement. Clips of her protesting in London while on crutches surfaced earlier this month.

Also, the “4 Minutes” singer posted a video of her adopted son, 14-year-old David Banda, dancing to Michael Jackson‘s controversial song referencing racism and police brutality, 1996’s “They Don’t Care About Us.”
