Addison Rae's explains: "I owe all of you an apology. Four years ago, I reposted a video which included a woman sharing her thoughts on Black Lives Matter and All Lives Matter that I should not have.

"Because of my privilege, I didn’t understand and wasn’t educated enough on the social injustices facing the Black community. All lives CANNOT matter until Black lives do. The black community was and continues to be oppressed and damaged by systematic racism."

Addison finishes off her statement on the issue by saying "I am truly sorry", promising to work on herself. At the time Addison reposted the video in question, she was 15 years old.
