#BlackLivesMatter
Last Saturday (12-13-14) I took part of a peaceful protest that took place here in Detroit that took place due the decision of both Grand Jury decisions in Ferguson, Missouri and Brooklyn, New York. Even though it was a small turn out it was still a turn out. Due to this being my first ever protest to take part of and witness at the same time.
I arrived an hour and half early because I wanted to walk around a bit and take pics of the sunrise. Unfortunately it was too cloudy to even see the sun that morning. As it became closer to the time for the meet up, people slowly began to arrive. As the last the protesters arrive, they all made the decision to go from the riverwalk to Jefferson. From there it was from Jefferson to Woodward, Campus Martius, and Grand Circus Park.
Though this is my first time participating in anything like this, I can truly see the passion that people have for the each other when there is unjust throughout the nation that we (United) States of America. The amount of love and support that the protesters received was just unreal.
