Many celebs have used their platforms to weigh in on racism and police brutality in this country in the days following the death of George Floyd. But for Ciara the most important message isn’t to influence her fans — it’s to teach her son.
On Sunday, amid protests and, sadly, riots around the country, the Body Party singer took to Instagram to share a photo with her oldest child, Future Zahir Wilburn.

In an open letter to the 6-year-old, whom she welcomed with rapper and ex-fiancé Future, she wrote:
“My sweet Baby Boy. I pray that when you get older A CHANGE will finally have come!! I’m going to keep my FAITH! I’m praying that the losses of our Black Kings and Queens won’t be in vain. Enough is Enough! I’m praying for UNITY! I’m praying for the powers that be to unite and decide that it’s time for a change! ❤️✊???”
Such a powerful message of hope for the future.
