Good vibrations are the last thing some critics are sending the way of rapper-turned-actor Mark Wahlberg after he took to social media to bemoan the death of George Floyd.
Invoking the hashtag #Blacklivesmatter on his official Instagram handle four days ago, Wahlberg stated:
“The murder of George Floyd is heartbreaking. We must all work together to fix this problem. I’m praying for all of us. God bless. ❤️🙏❤️#blacklivesmatter“
The Academy Award nominee may have thought he – like many fellow celebrities – was using his platform to shed light on racial injustice. Instead, his “activism” only encouraged light to be shed on his own reported racist past.
