1. So, protesters/rioters are still on the streets of Boston. @bostonpolice telling them to leave. https://twitter.com/bostonpolice/status/1267284115235184640

2. Meanwhile, people are tweeting about "how are we supposed to leave?"

Thread from @MBTA of all the stations closed & being bypassed because of "a demonstration".

5. @MBTA has suspended service on these bus routes: SL4, SL5, 11, 43.

6. For context it appears they're trying to restrict movement between Downtown Boston and these neighborhoods:

- Roxbury (pop: ~92% POC)

- South Boston (pop: ~21% POC)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Boston#Demographics

- South End (pop: ~45% POC)

7. Update:

While I was working on this thread, @MBTA closed:

- Prudential (Green)
- Back Bay (Orange)

All stations will be closed/bypassed through end of service tonight.
