Indigenous groups, Black Lives Matters join forces to mark historical 'sins' on July Fourth
Members of indigenous groups joined forces with Black Lives Matters organizers and other demonstrators Saturday afternoon near Olvera Street in a peaceful, masked protest and march that called for several actions, such as unity among minorities and an acknowledgment of the nation’s many sins on its birthday.
Rivers also called on Black Lives Matter to join the indigenous movement before saying forcefully, “Black lives matter.”land adjacent to Father Serra Park, Marchers momentarily blocked traffic along Alameda and later on Spring Street, causing brief traffic delays. Calderon also spoke passionately about justice for Guillén, saying “my heart extends to her family and everyone who loves her and is marching for answers.
Funmaker said “protesters” was the wrong designation for those who gathered for social justice, preferring instead to use the term “protectors.”
