Isaiah Washingtonย says African-Americans should stay home Monday to protest police brutality.

The “Grey’s Anatomy” alum said onย Facebook this week that African-Americans should consider a nationwide boycott to spur change in the relationship between law enforcement and black citizens.

“Imagine if every single African American in the United States that was really fed up with being angry, sad and disgusted, would pick ONE DAY to simply ‘stay at home’ from every single job, work site, sports arena and government office in the United States of America,” the actor’s call to action began.

“I’m very sure that within 72 hours from Wall Street to the NFL…Black Lives Would Matter,” Washington continued.
