REBLOG THIS, TAGGING “STOPTHEPARADE” and post it on your Facebooks, Twitters, Instagrams, etc, to get the word out what these protesters did/are doing, because THE NEWS WILL NOT:

Things You Will Not See on ABC This Morning:

—A group of SEVERAL HUNDRED (confirmed) No Justice No Peace protesters have been marching the side streets of the parade route since 12am.

—At 6:14am (earliest timestamp I could find), police formed a barricade to prevent peaceful protesters from reaching the parade. (https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B3dGpX9IMAAM1Ne.jpg)

—At least four arrests have been made (POC, of course) (www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aF6A77ih_4). Neville Watson, Matthew Martinez, Calvin Griffin are the only names I could find. Crowdsourcing funds were immediately set up for their bail.

—One violent altercation has occurred between police and protesters on 37th and 7th.

—Those listening to police scanners have confirmed that the police have instructed news outlets NOT to show protesters. (7:14am)

—Make that six arrests. Two more were JUST made in a violent altercation on 37th. (10:27am) Batons were used. Cannot confirm whether a protester or cop was the instigator.

—What little coverage these protests are receiving refers to these protesters as “agitators” and “anarchists.”

I just wanted everyone to know what you are NOT seeing on TV.
