• Sophie Turner responded to a fan who said people should stop protesting since the officers involved with George Floyd's death were arrested.
• "This isn't just about those 4 cops," the actress wrote on her Instagram on Sunday.
• She listed the names of other Black individuals who died as a result of police violence.
• "This is about the systemic racism that black people have faced for hundreds and hundreds of years," Turner wrote. "This is about changing the system."

Sophie Turner responded to a fan who called for Black Lives Matter protests to end following the arrest of the officers involved with George Floyd's death.

The "Game of Thrones" actress, 24, shared photos from protests — which she attended with her husband Joe Jonas and friends Greg Garbo and Paris Carney — on Instagram on Sunday.

In the pictures, Turner holds a sign that reads, "White silence is violence," and lays down on the ground in honor of Floyd, who died on May 25 after former officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes.

"No justice, no peace #BlackLivesMatter," she wrote.

No justice, no peace #BlackLivesMatter

In the comments, one user suggested that protests should end now that former officer Chauvin has been charged with second-degree murder and the three other ex-officers— Tou Thao, J. Alexander Kueng, and Thomas Lane — have been charged with aiding and abetting second-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter following Floyd's death.

"I mean they've been arrested and charge with murder sooooo can we have peace now?" the user wrote in the since-deleted comment, according to Buzzfeed.

Turner responded in the comments, telling the user that the protests are about more than "those 4 cops."

"This isn't just about those 4 cops, this is about Breonna Taylor, this is about Eric Garner, this is about the systemic racism that black people have faced for hundreds and hundreds of years," she wrote, drawing attention to Black individuals who have died as a result of police violence.

The actress continued, "This is about changing the system. Justice will be done when society reflects our belief that we are all equal. Until then there should be no peace."

Black Lives Matter. ❤️

In addition to sharing images from the protest, Turner used her platform to promote Black-owned beauty and fashion brands, link to a petition for legislation that prohibits police officers from shooting unarmed citizens, and show Kyla Lacey reciting a poem titled "White Privilege" on her Instagram story.

She also shared a message against racism and inequality along with a photo of the Black Lives Matter logo on her Instagram account and highlighted Black activists for people to follow.

"My heart is heavy. I stand in solidarity with those speaking out against racism and fighting for justice and equality. Silence is not an option. While my voice is not one that needs to be heard, I want to highlight some of those we should listen to," Turner wrote.
