Now Beyonce has added her voice to the growing cacophony of anger, anguish and despair over civil rights in a powerful statement on her website.
The global star said 'we are sick and tired of the killings of young men and women in our communities'
'We don't need sympathy we need everyone to respect our lives.
'These robberies of lives make us feel helpless and hopeless, but we have to believe that we are fighting for the rights of the next generation.
'The war on people of color and all minorities needs to be over.'
Her full statement, below, calls for people to channel their anger into demanding change from their politicians and legislators across America
