Harry Styles leaves a One Direction fan emotional after he kneels at a protest during Black Lives Matter march

Former One Direction singer Harry Styles recently stepped out to participate in a Black Lives Matter march in Los Angeles. Numerous videos and photos showed the Watermelon Sugar singer stepped out wearing a bandana, a black full arm jacket and a pair of white pants along with gloves keeping the COVID-19 outbreak in mind. While the visuals gave fans a glimpse at his support towards the movement, a fan of the singer happened to march alongside the international pop star. 

A Twitter user, who goes by the handle @d0peangela, revealed it was emotional to watch someone she admired for years to come forward and show his support. "hi i just marched at a black lives matter march next to harry styles," she announced before she gushed about Styles. She spoke about supporting Styles and One Direction for eight years. 

While she penned her experience of attending concerts that saw "predominantly white crowds," leaving her feek "uncomfortable at every show because i hated the feeling of being “white washed” and seeing no other black fans around," she added that watching Styles come out and support made her feel "validated."  

"i feel f**king VALIDATED!!!! i feel like he’s learning and doing his part to do better. i watched this man chant with us and kneel with us and most of you do not know how much it fucking means to be black and see this from the person you’ve been supporting for years!!!!!" she tweeted. 

Another fan supported the singer and wrote, "I don't care what the Harry Style fandom say, I just want to show homie out here being respectful, handing out water, and giving words of encouragement. This was taken hours ago and he left safely." 

Styles wasn't the only One Direction member who stepped out to show his support towards the movement. Niall Horan and Liam Payne also stepped out to participate in protests.
