When protesters asked a Michigan sheriff to WalkWithUs for George Floyd, he did.
As local leaders joined protesters across the nation to show solidarity in the wake of the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died in the custody of Minneapolis police on Memorial Day, the #WalkWithUs hashtag has blossomed on social media.
Members of the Yees Ku Oo dance group, a multicultural group from Juneau, Alaska, performed during an "I Can't Breathe" rally in the city. Police Chief Ed Mercer said he and other members of his department attended the rally to show solidarity with residents, saying he won't"tolerate excessive use of force."
In Denver, Mayor Michael Hancock and Police Chief Paul Pazen encouraged citizens to protest despite the violence the night before when 13 protesters were arrested and three officers were injured.
