Isaiah Washington Demands an Epic Boycott of Schools, Shopping and Work

Are you down?

Former Grey's Anatomy actor Isaiah Washington has an interesting plan to end police brutality — but he needs the help of every Black person living in America.
Reacting to the deaths of Terence Crutcher and Keith Lamont Scott this past week, he actor shared his vision on Facebook, and, for the most part, people seem to be here for it. In a nutshell, Washington says that to really prove that Black Lives Matter, all Black people should boycott school, work and shopping for a single day, on September 26, and stay at home instead.

See his message below — is it time to take a sick day?

September 26th isn't exactly a random date Washington picked. It's the date of the first Presidential Debate, to be moderated by Lester Holt.
