Peaceful intros all theres no violence here but you have a significant amount of progress is now standing in facing all of those officers right there is the proper frame so the camera can show this those officers there are all dressed in black no insignia norden vacation no names no nothing so it is fair to assume that these are federal Law Enforcement officers.

All protesters are very vocal here i think its been 3 months since another black man george floyd as you mentioned died and Police Custody what really has changed. Its a good very good question but a tough one to answer because what has really changed there are Police Departments across the country who try to make some structural changes however has Structural Racism or systemic racism is this law no of course not not at all and thats thats why this happened because Police Departments across the country and you can also seems like have a problem have a problem maybe with recruiting with training with what officers do their job and how do they do this at least that is definitely the opinion of many many protesters here and if you ask around again this is just another example of structural and systemic racism at this play in Police Departments ok stephens signs in commercial wisconsin thank you for that update.
