The country singer is speaking out with an important message.
Country music singer Darius Rucker opened up about having “faced racism [his] whole life” in a very poignant and heartfelt messages posted to his Instagram account on June 1. The talented musician, who gained notoriety as one fourth of the rock band Hootie & The Blowfish, got very candid in the social media upload this week as he urged people across the globe to “come together” to fight racism.
Darius began his post as he told fans that “this whole thing” had made him feel broken “to the core.” The star referenced the death of George Floyd and the subsequent protests that have taken place across the U. S. and in many other cities around the globe, as well as sending his condolences to all the families of those who have lost someone because of the color of their skin.
“As an American, a father, a son, a brother, a singer, a man… I have faced racism my whole life, from kindergarten to the life I live today,” he wrote in part in his lengthy message, which was a white font written on a black background.
