On Friday, the musician captioned a photo of the Black Lives Matter logo with: "I am a white Canadian and I will never know what it feels like to be an african American but what I do know is I am willing to stand up and use my voice to shine light on racism, because it's a real thing and it's more prevalent now than I have ever seen in my lifetime.. we are all Gods children and we are ALL EQUAL"
Other than the occasional "small hands" quip, Bieber has stayed relatively silent on current politics and social justice issues. One exception: In 2016, per TMZ, he reportedly turned down a $5 million offer to perform at an event tied to the Republican National Convention. Though the performance was pitched to Bieber as an apolitical event, the musician declined to move forward after his request to hang Black Lives Matter flags on stage was denied.
Of course, posting on Instagram hardly scratches the surface of meaningful activism. Hopefully Bieber's ready to do his homework too.
