Police in Los Angeles have developed a new strategy for police brutality, which pertains to beating people with the edges or simply the front of shields to subdue them and discourage them from ever coming back to a protest in the near future.
Dozens of protesters continued demonstrations in St. Paul after the nonfatal shooting of a black man by 4 police officers, stating that other methods of de-escalation should have been used. Demonstrators marched to the still-barricaded St. Paul Police Department headquarters, with speakers including Soren Stevenson who lost an eye after being shot with a rubber bullet by Minneapolis PD.
Around 50 protesters in New York City shut down the Brooklyn Bridge during a march to Foley Square in Manhattan to denounce numerous incidents of New York Police Department violence and intimidation against protesters, including extremely heavy buildups in previous incidents.
Dozens of protesters in New York gathered at Chuck Schumer’s apartment building in Brooklyn, demanding that the Democratic senator fulfill his promises to immigrants and the decriminalization of undocumented migration to the United States.
Over 100 protesters marched at the weekly protest for Patrick Kimmons, led by the mother of the victim of police brutality killed in 2018. Many bystanders honked their horns in support, as demonstrators moved through the city to the North Precinct before stopping for Letha Winston (Kimmons’ mother) to give speeches, including how to donate for the legal battle.
