<p>As we all continue to face the current pandemic many celebrities are using their platforms to encourage people to act responsibly and be safe as the number of fatalities continues to skyrocket. Recently, veteran actress Debbi Morgan took to social media and was overcome with emotion as she pleaded for everyone to continue to be safe during this time.</p>
<p>While leaving her home for the first time in about 12 days to get some essentials from Whole Foods, Debbi <em><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/B_sRIJ-h5IF/">said</a></em>, “I don’t know for some reason today I’ve been overcome with such emotion. I just want all of us to get through this and to the other side. And especially in our black communities where people are sick and dying. So many of us are dying, and we can’t put food on the table for our children. We can’t pay our rent, we can’t pay our mortgages.”</p>
<p>She continued, “Our ancestors were strong people and they got through slavery and we are still a strong people and we will get through this COVID-19. But we got to be smart and stay safe because we cannot and will not be broken.”</p>

<p>As the pandemic continues to progress, there are states that are slowly but surely allowing businesses to reopen despite the spread of the coronavirus still going on.</p>
<p>As we <em><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/georgia-governor-brian-kemp-is-allowing-some-businesses-including-hair-salons-and-barbershops-to-reopen-this-week/">previously</a></em> reported, Georgia was one of the few states that made the first efforts of reopening businesses. Governor Brian Kemp announced last week that some businesses were okay to open as the state&#8217;s stay-at-home order expired.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, many celebrities have used their platforms to urge people to stay home until things are fully under control within the state.</p>
