Protests and riots sprung up across the U.S. this week following the death of George Floyd, a black man suffocated by a police officer during an arrest in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on Monday.
Around 7 p.m., a protest began in Oklahoma City at the intersection of NW 23rd & Classen. Chants of "NO JUSTICE. NO PEACE." filled the air as hundreds of protesters circled the road to block traffic. Dozens of police officers arrived. Arrests were made. I took as many photos as I could.
Much of the early portion of the protest was peaceful. I couldn't see anyone fighting until police arrived to clear the intersection. Around 9 p.m., protesters started marching toward toward the Plaza District and eventually marched to the Oklahoma City Police Department Headquarters, 700 Colcord, and eventually dispersed from the area at about midnight.

International Conference Center, COP 17, Durban, South Africa, 9th December, 2011
In solidarity with the millions of people already feeling the impacts of climate change, hundreds of people protested in the halls of the UN Climate Talks this afternoon to demand that nations not sign a “death sentence” in Durban. The march filled the hall outside of the main negotiating room in Durban just as the afternoon round of talks were scheduled to begin. Standing side-by-side with delegates from some of the world’s most vulnerable countries, civil society representatives sang traditional South African freedom songs and chanted slogans like, “Listen to the People, Not the Polluters.”
flickr sperrt uns aus! Und auch dich!
Seit kurzem werden für deutsche Nutzer keine Bilder mehr angezeigt, die als 'moderate' oder 'restricted' markiert sind! Es gibt keine Moeglichkeit das umzustellen - das ist eine grobe Unverschämtheit und Frechheit von flickr!
In English:
If your Yahoo! ID is based in Singapore, Germany, Hong Kong or Korea you will only be able to view safe content based on your local Terms of Service so won’t be able to turn SafeSearch off.
In other words that means, that German users can not access photos on flickr that are not flaged "safe" ... only flowers and landscapes for the germans ...
We will not let this happen! Copy and upload this picture to your account - show flickr who we are!

See this happen / and what can you do / other than put your foot in your mouth. // People let rot so much, // but what the heck / if they don't trample on one another / I just take a photo.
Their message was compelling, yet easy for the people on their way in to just see it as an anti-Bush message and say "Oh, I'm part of the solution" and keep walking.We got held up because of the "bomb threat" which was the result of a device which may or may not have been designed to look like a molotov cocktail. They shut down streets, told us to hide behind buildings, mixed it up with protestors, arrested a few people, and went back to business as usual. I heard about all this from the undercover lady FBI agent. It always sucks to hear about these things from law enforcement because they often have, shall I say, a particular perspective on these types of events.The lack of good information, especially timely information, was an ongoing theme of this event. Watching the events later on the TV you either got the "Oh this was street theater" clip from the cops where they strongly alluded to the fact that they had made a mistake in flipping out over a paper mache "device" or you saw the one where they were much more bitter, defensive and self-righteous. Very "blame the victim." Guess which one made the nightly news?

Protesters gathered on the Haigis Mall of the University of Massachusetts to mourn the death of New Jersey state police officer, Philip Lamonoco, and protest the lecture, “The Great Western Massachusetts Sedition Trial: 20 years later” that took place at the Isenberg School of Management on Thursday, November 12, 2009. The lecture, originally planned to include Ray Luc Levasseur, former leader of the United Freedom Front, was forced to continue without Levasseur because of the U.S. parole board’s decision to not allow him to cross state lines as part of his parole restrictions.
