Chris Stapleton is making it very clear that he’s on the side of justice and the Black Lives Matter movement.

In an interview with CBS This Morning, Chris opened up about how he was moved by the movement for racial justice following the police killing of George Floyd.

“There’s a very broad awakening that’s come about,” the singer said. “It’s time for me to listen. It’s time for other folks to listen.”

“I thought we were living in a different country,” he added. “That’s 100 percent real. The country that I thought we were living in was a myth.”

Chris added that society as a whole has “a lot of work to do… And if you don’t think that, I think you’re not looking.”

“Do I think Black lives matter? Absolutely. I don’t know how you can think they don’t,” he concluded.

Damn! Speak the truth, Chris! Don’t forget to listen to his newly released title track of his album Starting Over, which drops November 13.
