Cain mentioned that he has enjoyed seeing people of every race come together to fight for equality. He continued on by saying he has loved seeing things like police officers joined the protesters and taking a knee.
"Kneel with the people," Cain said. "Understand that there are people that are in charge that shouldn't be. And please hold them accountable."
