Black Lives Matter Rally (George Floyd Protests): Victoria, BC, Canada

Black Lives Matter is an international human rights movement, originating from within the African-American community, which campaigns against violence and systemic racism towards black people. On May 25, 2020, George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, died in Minneapolis, Minnesota, after white police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for almost nine minutes while Floyd was handcuffed and lying face down on the street. George Floyd was murdered by Derek Chauvin and the three cops who stood by either guarding Chauvin or assisting him while he killed the innocent man. The George Floyd protests manifested into an ongoing series of protests, riots, and demonstrations against police brutality and racism in policing. The protests began in Minneapolis on May 26, 2020. The unrest began as local protests in the Minneapolis–Saint Paul metropolitan area of Minnesota before quickly spreading across the United States and internationally in support of Black Lives Matter. While the majority of protests have been peaceful, demonstrations in some cities descended into riots and widespread looting, with more being marked by street skirmishes and significant police brutality, notably against peaceful protesters and reporters. _________________________________ The rally was held on the unceded, surrendered, and occupied territories of the Lekwungen, WSÁNEĆ and Coast Salish people; these people remain here as the original and rightful stewards of this land.
