"We are united & if they try to divide us they will not succeed." NYC has been labeled an "anarchist jurisdiction" but so many diverse Brooklyn neighbors came out tonight in sorrow, pain & anger to say that there was no justice today for #BreonnaTaylor. #BlackLivesMatter
A massive crowd in front of Barclays laid down flat, observing the full 8 minutes 46 seconds #GeorgeFloyd choked under a policeman's knee. We heard so many voices of pain tonight. #BreonnaTaylor #BlackLivesMatter Image
It's jarring yet fitting to have words of #RBG, daughter of Brooklyn, as backdrop tonight. Some of the young people leading tonight have been out here every day since May. They are exhausted yet relentlessly calling for justice for #BreonnaTaylor. #BlackLivesMatter Image

Brooklyn cyclists en masse for #blacklivesmatter this evening. I've had a new appreciation for bike bells in these days of protest. Good to see cyclists make a bike lane even if @BilldeBlasio won't. #ourstreets

Tonight in Brooklyn we prayed. We kneeled. We shouted "Hands Up, Don't Shoot," "Peaceful Protest" & "I Can't Breathe." We took the streets. We took #ourstreets. We told #NYPD they work for us, because they do. #blacklivesmatter Image
