In the photo, Stamos and his 2-year-old son were captured from behind as they watched the profound television special in their home located in California.

Both father and son had their attention glued to the TV screen where the familiar face of Sesame Street character, Big Bird, could be seen speaking about racism in a simple way that young viewers would understand. Stamos captioned the post:

In the comments section, fans complimented Stamos on a range of things, including his hair and his efforts as a father. They also thanked him for promoting the critical subject.

The TV special that Stamos watched with his son was an hour-long. It was focused on racism and the ongoing nationwide protests, which followed the tragic death of George Floyd — a victim of police brutality in Minneapolis.

He was reportedly named after Stamos' late father.

The special began with Sesame Street's Elmo and his dad, Louie, who explained to his son what a "protest" means. The elder monster went on to tell his son what racism entails and how it has become a daunting problem in the country.

Afterward, Louie told Elmo that "not all streets are like Sesame Street," and the father-son duo swore that they want to help end racism.
