Former Vice President Joe Biden visited a protest site in Delaware on Sunday.

Biden’s Instagram post shows him kneeling together with a protestor and a child, wearing a mask.

“We are a nation in pain, but we must not allow this pain to destroy us. We are a nation enraged, but we cannot allow our rage to consume us. We are a nation exhausted, but we will not allow our exhaustion to defeat us,” Biden wrote under the Instagram photo.
