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.

"We are calling you [residents] to join us in the street. We can't accept this situation. We can't only mobilize on Facebook, online, This is why we are in the streets-- to say "that's enough." We won't accept this. We're tired of schools closing, not being able to work or leave our houses."

WalMart Protestors were arrested in Los Angeles. Protestors were seeking higher wages, better jobs, and the right to unionize.
Encountered this silent protest by chance....as body-painted participants made their way through crowded streets expressing their beliefs and raising conciousness on current issues like education, pro-life, corruption, gas pipeline projects and environmental issues among others. It was after 5:00 pm on a beautiful day so I had a very nice light to work with, no flash used.
Northern Ireland Republican protest art in Belfast.
Image taken in front of The Crumlin Road Gaol (Her Majesty’s Prison Belfast). (Corner of Divis and Northumberland streets). Part of the International Wall.
Large image on the wall is Kieran Nugent. He is known for his famous statement, "The only way they'll get a prision uniform on me is if they nail it to my back." This statement is reproduced under his image.
The "Made in Britain...Stormont" reference is sarcastic. It refers to the Irish Republican's viewpoint that the Northern Irish Parliament is controlled by Great Britain.

Right as I was taking this photo of police surrounding Yulia Tymushinko protestors, my phone rang. It was my friend calling to let me know its dangerous to be near any Yulia protestors because there might be a clash with police.
Yulia Tymushinko was the former Prime Minister of Ukraine, I don't know why she was arrested, I was just taking photos of the protest that managed to move into the center of the celebration. The police gave me some mean looks when they saw I was taking photos of them.

Protesting the new black format and "followers" vs contacts. No longer able to see who liked your photo, and conversations are more difficult. No posts on Flickr except these protests until Monday. A PROTEST.

Thousands of protesters and supporters gathered along the Embarcadero in San Francisco today to watch the official run of the Olympic Torch as it visited San Francisco and the United States.
Unfortunately most spectators and protesters were disappointed when after gathering for hours city officials changed the torch route at the last minute.
Rather than run the torch along the previously arranged route along the Embarcadero, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, the torch instead travelled from McCovey Cove to Van Ness Avenue where runners then ran the torch down Bay Street and Marina Blvd.
The change in route for the torch run did not change the protest mood down along the Embarcadero however. Supporters of the Olympics exchanged chants and shouts with protesters who mostly seemed to be protesting China's continued occupation of Tibet. Flags were waved and protest signs were carried in an overall peaceful demonstration.

Thousands joined the march in Melbourne on Friday April 10, shutting down the centre of the city for hours.
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!
