TMN: s1e15 | POLITICS/PROTEST - Democratic National Convention (2000)

Los Angeles CA | August 16, 2000 | 17:15 Hrs

This particular protest was held at Pershing square in Downtown Los Angeles during the last two days of the Democratic National Convention. The first two days of the DNC, violent protest broke out adjacent to the staples center where the convention was being held. The LAPD directed the many protestors to a handful of "Protest Zones" throughout the city. Pershing square is one of those zones for planned protests during the DNC. The majority of the protesters were socialist, anarchist and stop police brutality activists but all were peaceful due to the large presence of police officers at every corner. These are scenes of that evening.
