Sophie Turner on why protests must continue
"This is about changing the system," she wrote in response to a comment.
Turner continued, \"This is about changing the system. Justice will be done when society reflects our beliefs that we are all equal. Until then there should be no peace.\"
The actress also previously shared a statement on her solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.
\"I stand in solidarity with those speaking out against racism and fighting for justice and equality,\" she wrote in an Instagram post. \"Silence is not an option.\"
