Speakers are also leading chants against gentrification. They have stopped outside restaurants to address people dining at tables outside, reciting — in call and response with the crowd of protesters — what’s known of Sunday’s shooting by Kenosha police

Crowd, now a couple hundred in size, is heading west on Irving Street, chanting, “Fire, fire, gentrifier! Black people used to live here!” #DCProtests
