Prince is still sending messages to his fans.
On Saturday, the day before what would have been Prince's 62nd birthday, his estate shared a handwritten note from the "Kiss" singer on Instagram pertaining to intolerance.
"Nothing more ugly in the whole wide world than INTOLERANCE (between) Black, white, red, yellow, boy or girl. INTOLERANCE," read the note.

The caption stated that "Prince dedicated his life to speaking out against injustice, advocating for black excellence, and spreading the message of 'Love 4 One Another.' In this note that he kept in his personal archives, he wrote a message that still resonates today."
The estate also shared a music video for Prince's song "Baltimore," which he wrote after Freddie Gray died while in police custody in 2015.
