"When I saw Eric Garner, I’m like, 'That’s Radio Raheem based on Michael Stewart.' And then to see our brother [George] Floyd, and I know he saw what happened to Eric Garner, so he’s seeing that in his mind as his last eight and a half are being suffocated out of him," he said to the host.

Lee then went on to share that he biked to a protest in Brooklyn over the weekend, and told Fallon what he saw.

"Jimmy, my brother, people are there," he said.

"The young white generation, my sisters and brothers, they’re out there, it’s not just Black and Brown people. I’m very, very enthusiastic that people around the world were galvanized by the horrific murder of George Floyd," he continued.

Lee also divulged that he is hopeful for the November U.S. election, sharing that he thinks this time people will be saying "‘Hell no’ to Agent Orange."

He went on to say, "This guy gets elected, the world is imperiled… things are bananas now. Bananas."
