Madonna joined a protest in London, on crutches and with her kids, this weekend
The singer shared her experience protesting in L.A. Saturday via her Instagram stories. In a series of black-and-white photos, she said that protesters were peaceful, their arms raised, when police fired rubber bullets into the crowd, hitting her twice."I dont know how to articulate the horrors of today," she tweeted."NG + officers firing rounds into kneeling crowds. We dont have enough medics on the ground on our side. I was treating injuries I am not qualified to.
She continued:"And if you’re a white ally who is gonna stand and shout and antagonize the officers and NG and then hide behind black bodies when the shots start firing, f--- you. You couldnt understand a shred of the bravery of the black folks at the front line. Thank you to everyone who stayed." "And a big personal thank you to @yungblud who literally ran exposed in front of rounds being shot to drag wounded people to safety without even thinking twice," she said.
I dont know how to articulate the horrors of today. NG + officers firing rounds into kneeling crowds. We dont have enough medics on the ground on our side. I was treating injuries I am not qualified to. So much blood spilled. If you have med training pls go + standby outskirts.And if you’re a white ally who is gonna stand and shout and antagonize the officers and NG and then hide behind black bodies when the shots start firing, fuck you.
