Priyanka Chopra’s Post On George Floyd Goes Wrong; Fans Ask ‘Where Were You During India’s Riots?’
About
a
couple
of
days
ago,
actress
Priyanka
Chopra
shared
a
post
on
her
Instagram
page
about
the
killing
of
George
Floyd.
She
captioned
the
post
saying,
"There
is
so
much
work
to
be
done
and
it
needs
to
starts
at
an
individual
level
on
a
global
scale.
We
all
have
a
responsibility
to
educate
ourselves
and
end
this
hate.
End
this
race
war
here
in
the
US,
and
around
the
world.
Wherever
you
live,
whatever
your
circumstances,
NO
ONE
deserves
to
die,
especially
at
the
hands
of
another
because
of
their
skin
color."
"On
May
25th,
George
Floyd
was
pinned
down
by
the
neck
by
a
Minneapolis
police
officer
and
died.
He
laid
there,
fighting
for
his
life,
struggling
to
breathe,
and
other
officers
just
stood
there
and
watched.
The
officer
has
now
been
charged
with
murder.
George,
I
am
praying
for
your
family.
❤"
While Priyanka's pots might have received support from her global fans but her fans from India are anything but impressed. Her fans and followers asked her in the comments section about why did not she raise voice against riots in India. Netizens slammed Priyanka for not taking any stand against riots, which happened in Delhi and Kashmir and asked the actress to be more fair towards her nation.

"How do we believe your activism when you never spoke up about minorities who died in your own country at the hands of the state this year?"
@devansh1103
"Where was this outrage when Dalits and muslims were getting beaten here in India?"
@ingloriousbello
"Hey, here's your brownie points for your performative wokeness about the police violence in the america but staying silent about the Delhi riots and the systematic police brutality in Kashmir! You do you Priyanka! Go ahead with your performative wokeness and showing off your goodwill ambassador badge lmao."
@volatilekum
"Okay so you're against police brutality outside home but, you don't even acknowledge what happens here. You pretend to be "woke", but, your silence has been loud, your attempts to look empathetic in your apathy have been noticed and will be remembered. But, oh no maybe I should stop yelling because we're all here for (very selective and convenient) love."
