From our sister site The White Center Blog:
On Wednesday afternoon, June 10, 2020, hundreds of people peacefully protested at the White Center Community March for Black Lives, which started with speakers at Greenbridge Plaza before marching into the business district on 16th Ave SW.
This was a peaceful event, and far as we know there were no confrontations with police or looting of any kind.
Here’s some raw footage that was streamed live on Facebook (Be sure to “Like” that page to get alerts for future live videos):

Community truly was the focus of the BLM march in White Center yesterday: a small graduation for youth, largely male organizers were humble when a woman vocalized that she wanted to hear more women speak, & Latinx folk came out in lowriders to block traffic & keep pple safe ?
