Justice For All DC Rally And March 70

Washington DC, December 13, 2014. Reverend Al Sharpton of National Action Network joins with the families of Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice and others in a "Justice For All" rally and march to protest police violence and racism. A diverse crowd of tens of thousands assembled at Freedom Plaza and marched down Pennsylvania Avenue towards the US Capitol for a rally with speeches by Sharpton and others. Interactions between the demonstrators and police were generally cordial during the 'official' phases of the event but got contentious when a relatively small militant faction later decided to take over busy 7th Street for a time, blocking traffic and staging a 'die in' near the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
