Protesters have marched all over the United States after the death of George Floyd.
States are forced to activate members of the National Guard to calm protestors down, and cities are imposing curfews but demonstrators keep on expressing their anger and pain with placards, chants, and violence.
The whole country and people of all backgrounds have united together, demanding an end to police brutality against African Americans. But the bright spots have been set aside and only brutality, violence, and people looting can be seen online.
