Protests are continuing in New York City for the 13th straight night.
A crowd of nearly 2,000 took to the streets of Williamsburg, Brooklyn, and made their way through much of the borough before stopping to rally at a park in Bedford-Stuyvesant.
Like most protests around the city, they are remembering George Floyd, killed by Minneapolis police and buried Tuesday in Houston.
Thousands of protestors marched from Borough Hall in Brooklyn across the Brooklyn Bridge into Manhattan Tuesday, and held a rally in front of City Hall.
Led by Public Advocate Jumaane Williams, the crowd marched to chants of, “a people united will never be defeated”, called for an end to police violence and asked the city to cut one billion dollars from the NYPD budget and redirect it towards social programs. They also called for the “firing” of Mayor Bill De Blasio.
In the crowd were loved ones of people of color who have been killed by police in New York, including family members of Amadou Diallo, Sean Bell, Ramarley Graham and Eric Garner.
Marchers were emotional when they spoke about their reasons for coming out on the hottest day of the year so far.
“I saw the marches going by my house and I knew I had to join them,” one woman told NY1's Amy Yensi. The woman said she hoped this would mean an end to police violence.
Ramarley Graham's mother, Constance Malcolm, later marched with protesters in NoHo.
"I'm tired, but I know I have to continue to fight for my boys and girls," she said.
Once again, more than 1,000 protesters gathered outside Gracie Mansion, home to the mayor and his family. Hundreds started with a rally in Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village, a popular spot for protesters who have then been taking to the streets. As they did Monday, they then made their way to the Upper East Side to join what has become a nightly sit-in.
There were also marches in Queens, and a children’s march at the Barclays Center, one of the hubs of the protests in Brooklyn.
It has been another day of peaceful protests. There have been no arrests in the city for the third day in a row.
