A 9-year-old Ohio girl urged adults during a George Floyd protest to unite in condemning his murder in a powerful video shared on social media.

Aubrey Johnson stood in the middle of a crowd and used a megaphone to declare “black lives should matter as much as white lives” at a protest in Lancaster, Ohio, according to Caters News Agency.

“If I get it, you should get it. It is very wrong to kill people,” she told the crowd through tears.

Aubrey paused to compose herself before continuing to cheers from the other demonstrators.

“Black lives should matter as much as white lives. It is so wrong,” she said.

Her message comes as protests have erupted across the country to decry the death of Floyd, a black man who died in Minneapolis after a white cop, Derek Chauvin, pressed his knee on Floyd’s neck for several minutes.
