CONVERSATIONS GOING BACK AND

PROTESTS IN THE UPCOMING DAYS?

ACTIVITY.

DAMAGE.
DAMAGE.
DAMAGE. THERE IS NOTHING WORSE FOR THE
MOVEMENT TOWARD IMPROVING
POLICING AND CHANGING TO A NEW
NORMAL WHEN PEOPLE ARE SAFER IN
THEIR INTERACTIONS WITH THE
POLICE THAN THESE FOLKS WHO ARE
INFILTRATING THE PEACEFUL
PROTESTERS, BREAKING WINDOWS
AND SCARING FOLKS WHO ARE
WATCHING THIS.
WATCHING THIS. >> THANK YOU JUDGED AGAINST FOR
YOUR TIME.

MARGARET HUNT HILL BRIDGE AND

TO PROTEST.
TO PROTEST. HE SAYS HE IS GLAD THAT SOME OF
THEM ARE GOING HOME AND GOING
TO BED INSTEAD OF GOING TO
JAIL.
JAIL.
JAIL. AGAIN, A LOT OF CONCERN BECAUSE
WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF A
PANDEMIC. THAT WAS A LOT OF
PEOPLE THAT THEY WILL HAVE TO
TAKE DOWN TO DPD HEADQUARTERS
AND EVENTUALLY TO THE JAIL.

100 PEOPLE THAT WERE ARRESTED
