Samuel L. Jackson Sings A Protest Song Against Racist Police

Samuel L. Jackson is making a huge move against the racist police and the numerous killings of unarmed black people recently as he sang a song against these police and encouraged celebrities to do the same thing.

Samuel L. Jackson posts a video on Facebook and says that celebrities who poured ice water on their heads should also sing the powerful song as it is a chance for them to use their star power. The video was posted the video and the song is entitled "We Ain't Gonna Stop Till People are Free".

The song has been sung by a lot of people who have been attending demonstrations and protests in New York over the past week and even sung by groups of people who are on the city subway. The song was composed after the grand jury did not indict the white police officer who killed Eric Garner. The white police officer has put him on a chokehold causing him not being able to breathe thus his famous last words, "I can't breathe".

The 65-year-old star sings: "I can hear my neighbor crying, 'I can't breathe'/ Now I'm in a struggle and I can't leave/ Calling out the violence of the racist police/ We ain't gonna stop till people are free/ We ain't gonna stop till people are free."

Before the video ends, he calls out on the celebrities again saying "Come on, sing it out".

This is not the first time that Samuel L. Jackson has talked about the racially-charged protests and cases as he also commented on the case of 18-year-old Michael Brown who was shot in Ferguson, Missouri by a white cop who was also not indicted.

Samuel L. Jackson tweeted back then, "66 yrs, processing the same Old S--t! It's supposed to be different...It aint! Sorry for the Brown Family...The rest of us too!"

The protests have been turning violent as there have been tense standoffs between the police officers deployed in the area and the protesters.
