Kerry Washington says “there are no words that can encapsulate the pain of our bleeding hearts” in response to this week’s violence in America.

The “Scandal” star posted an open letter on her Instagram account on Friday afternoon, reaffirming to her two million-plus followers that their lives matter.

Washington’s meaningful words follow Thursday night’s deadly sniper shooting in Dallas, Texas, which left five police officers dead and injured seven officers and two civilians.
