Small crowd this evening.

I got wind off this evening not being black led or organize.
There seem to be no sense of direction evening.

They just shut down trumpetman and noshu from performing some songs.
Just got clarification that this isn't a black led event.

Rules we're no "swoopers" and no policing protesters.

How does someone go and police people but straight look back and say that no one can police them?
Well feds came out.

I haven't heard a BLM chant in a while.

It really seems more of a antifacist event rather than a BLM event.
People are heading back towards the ICE detention center.

At one point the crowd seemed to have been talking about the night like it's done after the federal altercation. It made it feel like people are just here to fight cops not for a movement.

Big party vibes.
A lot of federal officers.

I think a line of police vehicles were sent in with the Fire Department and EMT so that they don't get harassed by demonstrators.
Not adding anymore. I wasn't there to film cop altercations but the BLM movement. It didn't seem like it was there.

I set up a timer and waited for a chant that seemed to be related to the movement and it hardly happened.

Its sad that nightly protest is more like a nightly bar
Is this a place for people to just chill and hang? Questioning the motives of several people.

I want to clarify I ain't here for views or clicks.

ICE is more relatable to me since I can get deported being out there.

Just major co-option vibes all night of the BLM movement.
Is the nightly demonstration like a club that we do most night?

I'm not sure if they are about black lives anymore some nights.

Heavy co-option vibes and this has been present from the beggining 4 months ago.

There is an issue with a leaderless movement due to accountability.
