The two actors were photographed at a protest in Venice, California, on Tuesday.

Ben Affleck and Ana de Armas showed their support for a historic black church and the Black Lives Matter movement as protests across the country continued.

They talk about these important issues." The Twitter account caption read,"March for #GeorgeFloyd in #Venice today. Blessed to have @BenAffleck express awareness and concern for the local Historic Black Community in #VeniceBeach that has been long ignored and obstructed by local politicians, LAPD, and commerce bullies. #SaveVenice #DefendOakwood."

Many celebrities have shown their support for Black Lives Matter after the death of George Floyd, 46, last Monday in Minneapolis, Minnesota, when a white officer, Derek Chauvin, pinned him to the ground with a knee on his neck.
