The actor and his ex-wife Zoe Buckman took to the streets of New York wearing masks and holding flowers in hands to show solidarity with the black community who has seen the oppression at the hands of the white people

David Schwimmer in his Instagram post wrote, “Yesterday at the Protest & Vigil, downtown NY. We’re no longer a couple, but @zoebuckman and I are parents of a nine year old, and fellow advocates for social justice and reform. We marched in honor of the countless black lives lost to racial violence; to oppose the institutional racism and systemic bias against marginilized communities; to show our love for, and solidarity with, our family members, colleagues and friends of color; because we are angry and appalled by the shocking indifference of our President; and to demand a better future for our children. ALL of our children.It is not enough to be opposed to racism. We must be actively opposed to it.”


Zoe Buckman also shared the same image along with other pictures and videos with the caption, “No justice: no peace. (It was painful powerful beautiful. Everyone wore a mask. I love you NYC.) These are our streets. Keep showing up. It’s happening. Black Lives Matter.  with my comrade and co-parent @_schwim”
