“Nothing more ugly in the whole wide world than INTOLERANCE (between) Black, white, red, yellow, boy or girl. INTOLERANCE,” Prince’s handwritten message read.

Meanwhile, celebrities including Beyonce, Jennifer Lopez and Lady Gaga, have called for political change in response to the latest victim (Floyd) of police brutality, , per PEOPLE.
“We have known for a long time that President Trump has failed,” said Gaga. “He holds the most powerful office in the world, yet offers nothing but ignorance and prejudice while black lives continue to be taken. We have known he is a fool, and a racist, since he took office. He is fueling a system that is already rooted in racism, and racist activity, and we can all see what is happening. It’s time for a change.”
“The world came together for George Floyd. We know there is a long road ahead,” Beyonce wrote on Instagram Wednesday. “Let’s remain aligned and focused in our call for real justice.”
