During a protest against police violence organized by the Big 4 agencies in Century City on Saturday, Michael B. Jordan took the microphone to reflect on some of his film roles and share what they have taught him about racial injustice and inequality.

Playing Oscar Grant in Fruitvale Station gave him the "opportunity to feel the pain of his family, his daughter, his mother," said Jordan. "I lived with that for a very long time and it weighs on me." Referencing the time he played a fireman who joined a revolution in Fahrenheit 451, the actor said,"Producing that movie made me really realize the lengths that the government and oppressors will go to keep knowledge out of your hands." He continued to say that he also had the "honor" of playing.
