Jaylen Brown has never been shy to voice his opinion on political matters.

Jaylen Brown is one of the most vocal players in the NBA when it comes to politics and right now, his voice is needed more than ever. Brown is well-aware of this and recently, he took to Twitter where he voiced his opinion and concerns in regards to the murder of George Floyd by Minneapolis police. 

As Brown explained in the tweets below, "police brutality is an act of terrorism." He also noted that the cops who were involved should be arrested as well and that now is the time for protest. The Boston Celtics star has had enough of people of color being killed by police and he is vowing to take matters into his own hands. Brown plans to have a peaceful protest of his own in solidarity with the countless others who have taken to the streets to combat injustice.

Brown also took to Instagram a couple of days ago where he urged all of his fans to not be bystanders when they see an injustice taking place. Simply put, Brown is hoping that these recent events lead to real change and he is urging anyone and everyone to do their part.

Stay tuned for updates in regard to this situation as we will be sure to bring them to you.
