Jamie Foxx appeared with protesters and former NBA player Stephen Jackson in Minneapolis, where he spoke during a press conference.

In video shared by ABC News, the Oscar winner said, "We're not afraid to stand. We're not afraid of the moment. And I think what you saw on television, to watch this man plead for his life… as I sit with my two daughters, my nephews who had just come from the grocery store, what it does it overcomplicates everything as a black man trying to tell his son or his daughter how to function in life. Even the things that we've taught them don't seem to work."

Foxx continued, "All I wanted to do today was let you know that I'm not a celebrity. I'm from Terrell, Texas. These are my brothers. This means everything because at the end of the day, when we see you guys out here on the frontline, we want to let you know you got support... God bless George and his family. To all of my friends who aren't black, just try to put yourself in our position."
