Lady Gaga took to her Twitter account on Wednesday to show solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement in the wake of recent police shootings. "I pray for the black community who suffer fear of prejudice, violence and injustice. We need lawfulness, fairness, unity," Gaga tweeted along with the hashtag #BlackLivesMatter.
