This marked the second vigil that activist group &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/2016\/07\/13\/black-lives-matter-nyfw\/\" target=\"_blank\">Black Lives Matter<\/a>&#8221; had to organise that week, with the shooting of Alton Sterling taking place only one day before.\u00a0As many\u00a0Americans continue to exhibit unwavering support of the Second Amendment&#8217;s right to bear arms, some\u00a0of the nation&#8217;s\u00a0biggest celebrities\u00a0are using their influence to actively speak out in opposition.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"size--small\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-38172\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/09\/Devonte-Hynes-and-Zoe-Kravitx-by-Shayan-Asgharnia-859x600.jpg\" alt=\"Devont\u00e9 Hynes and Zo\u00eb Kravitz.

Since then, Questlove has been involved in a collaborative campaign entitled &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/everytown.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">Everytown for Gun Safety<\/a>\u201c.<br \/>\nThe partnership has resulted in a photo campaign by Shayan Asgharnia, in which young black\u00a0artists use their stature to raise awareness about the issue. Photographed in black and white, each activist holds an orange placard which reads &#8220;WE CAN END GUN VIOLENCE&#8221;.
