Along the Protest Route

Along the route up Frederick Douglass Blvd on Friday groups of people watched, cheered, put up their fists and took pictures.

Friday we joined a march for white allies to learn to be better allies, led by professor La’Tesha Sampson from the Frederick Douglass statue at 110th Street up to the Harriet Tubman statue on 121st Street in Harlem

Vigil for George Floyd

Carl Schurz Park, New York

We’ve been following @justiceforgeorgenyc on Instagram, which notifies us of all the rallies going on every day. This is a nightly vigil by the Upper East Side grouping at Carl Shurz Park which sometimes marches to Gracie Mansion (but didn’t the evening we were there).
