I’m at Pershing Square, already a large police presence with lots of cruisers staged between Hope St and Olive St. #BlackLivesMatter

Cops appear to be mostly staged on the south side in front of businesses. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngeles

Completely peaceful and organized, just chanting/walking around the square #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtest

We’re now marching down the street, still peaceful, in fact most of the drivers are supportive! #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtest

Cops have intentionally blocked the sidewalk and look like they’re ready to force a fight #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtest

We tried to get them to come with us, no dice. We had to divert. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

A cop just unprovoked intentionally hit someone. A medic looked at him. He’s ok and his friends are taking care of him. I’m sure there will be footage soon. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

Cops are staged at 6th and Olive looking like they’re ready to try starting some shit. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

Once again, WE THE PROTESTERS walk away and maintain the peace. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

AGAIN cops are staged to incite a confrontation, and WE divert to avoid it #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

Feels a whole lot like they’re trying to box us in and force a confrontation. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

Patrol cars are now coming in behind the main body of protesters, it’s looking like I’m right #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

They’re now posted up at 9th and Flower, blocking part of the route back to Pershing Square #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

Once again THE COPS trying to incite violence. Piggy was too slow this time. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

**WARNING LOUD NOISE*** The people are on our side, much love! #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

@MayorOfLA is a coward who would rather call the National Guard than listen to a peaceful protest. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests #GeorgeFloyd

Saw some people get emotionally overwhelmed and protestors had to hold them back. Then they held each other. It was beautiful. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests

People are dispersing now, 6pm curfew is having the desired effect. Please note that the only violence was incited by police. #BlackLivesMatter
#LosAngelesProtests #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd

On my way home now, glad I came out to support. Will find a vid of the cop hitting that kid and add it to this thread. Much love to all my fellow protesters. #JusticeForGeorgeFloyd #BlackLivesMatter
