Black Lives Matter of LA organizers are planning a protest at Pan Pacific Park today at noon to protest the death of George Floyd by a Minneapolis police officer who has been arrested and charged in the killing. LAPD is expected to have a presence at the protest. Participants are encouraged to wear masks.
I was over there earlier in my socially distanced way … I wish I could have waded more into the crowd, but my heart still felt better seeing so many young people showing up. Beautiful and righteous afternoon. This past week was too painful and scary to bear alone. Keep the peace. We need peacekeepers.
