Lots of Waves & Honks for #BlackLivesMatter March

Dozens of Brandonites marched the sidewalks of 18th Street in support of the Black Lives Matter movement on Friday afternoon.

The march started in the Healthy Living Centre parking lot and continued south on 18th Street before turning around and coming back once hitting Richmond Ave.

Numerous cars honked their horns in support as marchers waived and held signs with various messages of support for the movement. The BLM movement was rekindled in the United States after a white police officer killed George Floyd, an African American man, by kneeling on his neck for nearly 9 minutes.

Following the killing, protests and rallies have been happening in every US state, as well as numerous other countries.
