There’s no denying the very fact that celebs are often criticized by some people for no reason. In most cases, celebs choose to ignore and pay no heed, as it’s impossible to please all at once. But here in Sophie Turner’s case, the actress was criticized by one of her followers following her decision to protest.
The follower had a question that read, “I mean they’ve been arrested and charge with murder so there is justice soooo can we have peace now?”
Sophie Turner chose not to stay mum or ignore the question, and in return had a strong befitting reply for that follower. It won’t be wrong to say that her reply was also a powerful message for everyone.
Sophie Turner wrote, “This Isn’t just about those 4 cops, this is about Breonna Taylor, this is about Travyon Martin, this is about Eric Garner, this is about the systemic racism that black people have faced for hundreds of years. This is about changing the system. Justice will be done when society reflects our beliefs that we are equal. Until then there should be no peace.”
