The 20-year-old took to Instagram to share what she thinks about the recent unrest across the United States, which stemmed from the murder of Floyd in the hands of police officers.

“As a person who was born into privilege based on my skin color & financial situation, i was not always aware that these issues were still so present. And that makes me feel awful. But that also fuels me,” the influencer wrote in her Story.
