“This week has been heartbreaking for so many reasons. We need to acknowledge that the racism and brutality in this country has been going on for a long time – and it’s NEVER been okay,” she shared.
“As allies, who want equality and peace, it’s our responsibility to make noise, to demand justice, to educate ourselves on these issues, and more than anything, to spread love,” Jennifer wrote alongside this video of author and activist James Baldwin.
While it's fantastic to be posting on social media and spreading your message of love to an audience, of course, for celebrities, an even more helpful way to further your cause can be through hefty donations that the average person just can't make.
A source has told ET Canada that Jennifer has donated almost $1 million to several charities including Color Of Change.
What an amazing donation from a wonderful human being! We could all stand to be a little more like Jen in our lives!
