Justice Smith has come out as queer. The 24-year-old actor publicly came out on Instagram on Saturday, in a post sharing his experience at a Black Lives Matter protest in New Orleans.

Smith called for more inclusion of LGBTQ+ voices in the movement, noting how some demonstrators would «hold their tongue» when he and his partner, Nicholas Ashe, chanted «Black Trans Lives Matter» or «Black Queer Lives Matter.» "@nckash and I protested today in New Orleans.

We chanted ‘Black Trans Lives Matter’ ‘Black Queer Lives Matter’ ‘All Black Lives Matter’. As a black queer man myself, I was disappointed to see certain people eager to say Black Lives Matter, but hold their tongue when Trans/Queer was added," Smith wrote.
