The "Ray" actor took to Instagram on Monday to share photos from the weekend's protest in Los Angeles and to share a message that's likely relatable for any black parent.
"Having them watch the world come together was beautiful," Foxx, 52, wrote. "But having to explain to them why we were all there was heartbreaking."
