Peaceful. Youre likely seeing in your own Cities Police and protesters, though, getting caught up in some violence. Some have been deadly, weve learned this morning. One person died last night in indianapolis, and a young man died in detroit friday. We are now seeing Law Enforcement with some new, strict measures theyre enacting. The National Guard is being deployed in more than a dozen states. Millions of people were put under curfews in more than two dozen cities. And a big concern for authorities is looting and vandalism as well, after scenes look at this. This is a target store, and it says its temporarily closed 175 Stores Across the country, including 71 in minnesota. Thats where this all began, of course, after the death of george floyd in minneapolis. And speaking of george floyd, theres this new video taken when floyd was taken into custody, right before he was pinned to the ground. Yeah, its a 20second clip from a Convenience Store security camera. We want to be very clear here, we never see george floyd. We do see these four officers appear to be, i dont know, struggling or something with something or someone in the back seat of that patrol vehicle. At one point, one of them moves around the vehicle, the back of the vehicle. But again, we do not ever see george floyd in this video. Yeah. Were getting more video coming in from surveillance and cell phone video, still waiting, though, for the body cam video from those officers on the scene. Lets go to new york now, where the protests are growing from night to night. Cnns Polo Sandoval is there. What happened overnight . Because were seeing new cell phone video showing fires being set across that city and were seeing similar scenes across the country. Reporter yeah. You see cell phone video. You see photographs that are making their rounds on the web. It gives you a better understanding of what took place overnight. Some of the arrests that went down actually happened here in times square, but when you step back and look at it nationally it was really another round of these fiery clashes between protesters and police. And when you hear from demonstrators, what youre hearing from them, its that constant call for justice. A wave of protests over the death of george floyd spread from coast to coast on saturday and spilled over into the morning. I want to be able to go into a white neighborhood and feel safe. I want to be able when a cop is driving behind me, i dont have to clench and be tense, okay . I want to be able just to be free and not have to think about every step i take reporter authorities responded to a fifth night of protests, while at least 25 cities across the u. S. Enacted curfews. Peaceful protests took place, as well as acts of vandalism in cities large and small. Numerous states have either activated or requested National Guard forces to assist their cities. There was a scuffle in times square when several new York City Police officers in helmets took down a protesters to effect an arrest, and an nypd vehicle could be seen burning near union square. Another incident, an nypd vehicle appeared to drive into a railing, blocking protesters after items were hurled at the car. [ sirens ] at least three people were reported shot and one dead amid protests in downtown indianapolis on saturday night. This according to Indianapolis Police chief randall taylor. Police are still investigating the incidents and have told citizens to avoid the area. The minnesota National Guard had more than 4,100 citizen soldiers and airmen responding to the twin cities, according to a tweet from the guard. The tweet said, over 10,000 National Guard members are expected to join the response. A group of protesters who were marching from minneapolis to st. Paul tried to cross the lake street marshall bridge but were met with tear gas. Protesters could be seen running back in the direction that they came from. Cnns Miguel Marquez nearby as protesters held their hands in the air as some people shot off fireworks. Law enforcement let off tear gas and the crowd scattered. Cars were set on fire in los angeles, seattle, and miami. Members of the california National Guard were deployed to l. A. To support Law Enforcement authorities amid protests, mayor Eric Garcetti said in a statement to cnn. One demonstration in los angeles led to clashes between police and protesters. Police vehicles were vandalized by some protesters who kicked in the windows or sprayed the cars with graffiti. Police fired rubber bullets at demonstrators who chanted, black lives matter and george floyd. Looting could also be seen as protesters went under a metal gate inside a store and walked out with various merchandise in los angeles. It was also an extensive looting in philadelphia. Protesters there also vandalized the statue of former mayor, Police Commissioner frank rizzo in front of the citys Municipal Services building, as seen in live aerials from cnn affiliate kyw. Philadelphia police say protests at city hall and the art museum began peacefully before a group of others began committing criminal acts, including vandalism, said authorities. Aerial footage from cnn affiliate wls showing vandalizi vehicles, some throwing Water Bottles at Police Officers in seen lifting Police Barricades and throwing them at police cars. At a press conference last night, chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot said that she had been engaged the past six hours in, quote, watching a tragedy unfold in our city, which started out as a peaceful protest has now developed into criminal conduct. In washington, d. C. , u. S. Secret Service Police vehicles near the white house were vandalized by protesters with graffiti, seen in video shot by cnn. In another incident, a fire could be seen burning behind the historic kay adams hotel near the white house. In atlanta, members of the National Guard gathered at Lennox Square mall after the Police Department said that it would be assisted by about 20 other agencies to monitor activity and protect retail centers. In downtown, the atlanta Police Department said one of their officers appears to have been struck by someone riding an atv and sustained significant injuries as a result. Georgia governor signed an executive order on saturday night authorizing the activation of up to 3,000 National Guard troops statewide, kemle calling for the activation ahead of protests sunday. Governor mike dewine activated the ohio National Guard to respond to protests in columbus, according to a release from his office. Columbus City Council President shannon harden says she and democratic u. S. Representative joyce beatty of ohio were among those sprayed during a protest in columbus saturday morning. Beatty tweeted a photo sequence of the incident. Democratic representative john lewis releasing a statement saturday night, saying he understands protesters pain, but he called on them to refrain from rioting. I know your pain, your rage, your sense of despair and hopelessness. Justice has, indeed, been denied for far too long. Rioting, looting, and burning is not the way. Organize. Demonstrate. Sitin. Standup. Vote. Be constructive, not destructive. History has proven time and again that nonviolent, peaceful protest is the way to achieve the justice and equality that we all deserve. A quick final note on that dramatic video showing the nypd driving into that crowd. New york mayor bill de blasio reacting, saying that he wished that those officers would have found perhaps a different approach but that, ultimately, he did say, quote, the protesters did the wrong thing, surrounding that police car, period. Its a statement thats certainly not going to be well received by many, ma in new yor including congresswoman alexandria ocasiocortez, who tweeted that that kind of response is unacceptable. Victor, christi . Polo sandoval in new york, thank you. Lets go to minneapolis, where this all started and continues now. Police there used tear gas to disperse some crowds there. They say that some of the people started throwing things at police. Josh campbell joins us with the latest from minneapolis this morning. So, josh, we know, as polo was talking about, there is a National Guard presence there. Have you seen that perhaps over the last couple days thats changed anything . Reporter yeah, we certainly have, christi. A noticeable change in the posture by Law Enforcement. But overnight, that doesnt seem to have affected some of the rioting and some of the looting in certain places. Were here at what used to be a Retail Shopping center. You can see one building here was set ablaze. The water there on the ground from the sprinklers likely the only thing saving this building, putting out that fire. But as we walk here, you can see, this is a scene that weve seen in so many neighborhoods, and that is graffiti. I want to show you just kind of a tale of two experiences here. This here is a broom and dustpan. This is left behind from members of the community who were here yesterday cleaning up rubble and rubbish and destruction from the day before. But overnight we see more of that very same thing. Now, in this area, were across from the Police Precinct here, which is not far from where Police Officers took george floyd into custody. He later died in custody as well, we know, sparking all of this violence that weve seen. This overnight was the scene of another clash with protesters, and you can see here, protesters brought in rocks that were then used to throw across, towards Police Officers. There was a massive show of force here last night by Law Enforcement officers. You see up near this police station, theyve erected barricades and barriers. Theres razor wire here now. And one thing which is not typical of a Police Department, this morning you can see behind me officers on the roof keeping watch, looking for anyone who may be coming into this area. And i can tell you, we had our own experience, my crew this morning, whenever we arrived. Our caravan was immediately met and confronted by Police Officers. They wanted us to identify ourselves. They were very polite and very cordial, but they wanted to know who we were. Interestingly enough, they told us that they saw us coming. Theres a helicopter above right now thats in whats called stealth mode thats keeping tabs on different neighborhoods, looking at people that are moving in and out, trying to determine if there are any agitators. They saw our caravan coming. They wanted to see if we were coming for peaceful purpose or possibly to cause some kind of destruction. Thats what theyre on the alert for right now, and this all stems from the governor saying that this neighborhood will be seeing overwhelming force. Theyre certainly seeing that today. We also heard from the governor, similar to what polo described hearing from the mayor of chicago, people who are coming in from out of town or people who dont share the values of those who are protesting. Reporter yeah, exactly, victor. Thats one theme that weve continued to hear, both from residents and from the politicians. You can tell in just listening to the voices of some of the elected officials here, theyre trying to make that point. Theyre trying to both assure their community that theyre doing what they can to try to stop the violence, but theyre also sending a message to the protesters, to the outside agitators, especially those who, in their view, theyre saying, are trying to hijack this peaceful protest thats been pointing out the alleged Police Brutality against george floyd. Lets listen here to how the governor explained that difference between the community and those who are coming from outside. Minnesotans, this is a challenging time. Our great cities of minneapolis and st. Paul are under assault by people who do not share our values, who do not value life and the work that went into this, and certainly are not here to honor george floyd, and they need to see today that that line will stop and that order needs to be restored. Reporter now, as we stand here now, smoke continues to billow in the distance behind us, closer to downtown. There were fires set at night. The Fire Department, obviously, doing a repeat of what they did the day before, putting out hotspots. With that call for overwhelming force that weve seen, and now the National Guard being fully deployed here in this area, again, its yet to be seen whether well continue to see more of this violence, more of this destruction, and well obviously be keeping a sharp eye on the police and their response as they try to safeguard these neighborhoods. Victor and christi . Yeah, take good care there, Josh Campbell and your team. Thank you. Josh, thank you. Lets say good morning to michael harriette, writer for the root. Good morning. Good morning. Thank you for having me. Certainly. Youre more than a writer. Youre a student of history. I want to start here. Why is this becoming this national moment, when similar situations we think back to 2016 with philando castillo, an unarmed black man, man who had not pulled a gun, killed on camera, terrence was unarmed, was killed on camera. Months apart. That did not become a national moment. Why is this happening now . I think its because, you know, i think malcolm x described it as a powder keg. I think other people have described it as a pot on a stove. At some point, it has to boil over. It has to explode, and thats this moment. I dont when we see all of these people asking the questions like that, i dont understand what they thought would happen if you keep raining injustice and chaos and violence on one community for years and years and years. It will eventually youre going to have to reap it. Even the bible says it, right . Youre going to have to its going to explode. You cant rain injustice on one person and not expect reciprocity. So, this is what america has reaped, right . It is getting back what black people have experienced, the violence and the chaos and the injustice, right . Like, they want to make sense out of protests against something that does not make sense. So, i think the question is, why wouldnt this happen . And why hasnt it happened sooner . Yeah. I think, like, thats a good question, because i think what people should be praising is the remarkable, long suffering of black people to take this day in and day out and day out, right . We saw it in georgia. We saw it in louisville. And now were seeing it in minneapolis. Like, we keep taking this these are only the cases that make national news. These are only the cases that people hear about, but this happens in communities of black people every day. And so, you know, at some again, at some point, it has to explode. And you know, i guess its time for this and what we have to realize, too, also, is that this country is only seeing and reaping a microscopic fraction of the injustice and chaos and violence that we experience every day. So, that is a great question, why hasnt it happened sooner . Let me ask you about the tactics, though, and ive looked at some of your statements on twitter and i want to read one here. You know, politicians and Police Officers and civil rights leaders have condemned the damage, the looting, the arson, especially. You tweeted this so, if you want to change the system, history has repeatedly told us how to do it burn that shit down. Right. I mean, when you talk about most of the lets go back through history, right . So, we can start with the boston tea party. What was that besides a looting and rioting, right . The reason that black people have been suffering injustice for these years goes back to reconstruction, when a National Terror cell of white terrorists rained down injustice on us and terrified us for years until the federal government conceded that they will be able, that the south could treat black people any way they want in exchange for them installing rutherford b. Hayes as president. When you see the Civil Rights Movement well, lets go back to right after the first world war. Let me stay here, because i want to ask you about the Civil Rights Movement. We hear from congressman john lewis, who says that the destruction of property, the setting fires, the looting, the graffiti is not the way to accomplish the goal. It is a distraction. Your response to that assertion from congressman lewis . Well, you know, i respect john lewis more than, you know, almost anyone on earth. But i think that, you know, the people who john lewis is talking to, right, they forget how because history has whitewashed the past and because our Education System the Civil Rights Movement was very violent, right . It was just us who the violence was inflicted on, right . I mean, john lewis had his skull cracked. He was firebombed, right . And so, one, why wouldnt you expect reciprocity for that . And two, like, i guess, like, so we should sit back and keep taking that, and there is no indication that there will be the same kind of thing on the other side from White America. In other words, we cant expect white we dont how would we know that White America will have some kind of sorrow and some kind of empathy for us when we just keep taking these brutal slayings in our communities every day . Because thats what it was, right . Like, one of the littletalkedabout things about the Civil Rights Movement is that the role that television played in it because america started seeing how brutal the south and this country was treating black people. It was unavoidable. And john lewis is right televisions across the country. Listen, i have so much more i want to get to, michael, but weve run out of time. I thank you so much for being with us this morning, to be part of the conversation. Thank you for having me. Certainly. Conversation continues tonight at 8 00 eastern right here on cnn.

So, there were clashes between police and protesters last night as there were crews battling fire in the Nations Capital. Yeah, this was a fire behind the historic kay adams hotel near the white house. Fire crews say that this started in a construction area. No damage to the hotel, but the building was covered in graffiti, including some specifically directed at the president. Cnns White House Reporter Sarah Westwood with us. Second night there outside of the white house, clashing with protesters. What happened . Reporter thats right, victor and christi, the second night of unrest here in the Nations Capital. But unlike on friday night, Law Enforcement, primarily secret service, was keeping those protesters far away from the white house. Pennsylvania avenue in front of the white house was closed down and those protesters were eventually kept out of Lafayette Park across the street from the white house, and thats because they wanted to create as large a buffer as possible between those demonstrators and the white house. There were some skirmishes, though, that broke out between Law Enforcement officers and some of those protesters at certain points. Pepper spray was even used on that crowd. And as you mentioned, a fire did break out near that historic kay adams hotel. It appeared to start on some sort of scaffolding near a construction site near that hotel. That hotel is actually just a block or two away from the white house, so very close. Luckily, the hotel was not damaged, but there was graffiti drawn on that hotel and also nearby the windows were smashed in of the Ronald Reagan president ial Foundation Building also near the white house, so we did see more unrest here in the Nations Capital last night, including near the white house, where, by the way, the National Guard was activated to help keep the peace, victor and christi. We did see the president yesterday in florida for the spacex launch. Did he at any time, in speaking with the press, react to any of the protests that weve been seeing . Reporter christi, we did hear the president address some of this while he was speaking after the launch of the dragon into space, which he watched yesterday. He addressed us with the unrest that weve been seeing, some of the protests. It was a really striking contrast, though, to the tone that weve been seeing in the many tweets that he sent about the protests and about the george floyd case. I want you to take a listen to what he said during those formal remarks yesterday. I stand before you as a friend and ally to every american seeking justice and peace, and i stand before you in Firm Opposition to anyone exploiting this tragedy to loot, rob, attack and menace. Healing, not hatred, justice, not chaos, are the mission at hand. Reporter and later, the president took to twitter to criticize the democratic mayor of minneapolis for not getting protests in that city under control fast enough. He wrote, the National Guard has been released in minneapolis to do the job that the democrat mayor couldnt do. Should have been used two days ago and there would not have been damage and the Police Headquarters would not have been taken over and ruined. Great job by the National Guard. Now, of course, the president has sent a number of tweets like this, going after protesters extensively. He spent a lot more time criticizing those demonstrators than the Police Officers who killed george floyd, so that is just a juxtaposition that weve been seeing in how the president has talked about this, victor and christi. All right, good to know. Sarah westwood, thank you. The likely democratic nominee for president , joe biden, is now speaking about the violent protests. He says that protesting brutality is right and necessary. In a statement, he writes in part, these last few days have laid bare that we are a nation furious at injustice. Every person of conscience can understand the rawness of the trauma people of color experience in this country from the daily indignities to the extreme violence like the horrific killing of george floyd. We are a nation in pain, but we must not allow this pain to destroy us. Were a nation enraged, but we cannot allow our rage to consume us. We are a nation exhausted, but we will not allow our exhaustion to defeat us. For more on the protests and the politi politics, stay with cnn. Youll want to watch state of the union with jake tapper. Up next, two National Emergencies now, the pandemic and Police Brutality and the response to the killing of george floyd and several others now overlapping. Brian stelter here to discuss that.

And in every community, youre likely seeing whats happening in washington and philadelphia and new york and minneapolis, and the list goes on, because there are reporters there, television reporters, print reporters, people there on social media as well collecting all of the images and telling whats going on. And as dicey as it is for all of the people at the protests, they are included. Our colleague, omar jimenez, was detained while covering the aftermath of protests on friday. Thankfully, he was released quickly, he and the whole team. Also ah im getting shot im getting rubber bullets rubber bullets its okay. Its those pepper bullets. This was live on the air. Some reporters being caught during the protests, including one with our affiliate w. A. V. E. In louisville, kentucky. Police apologized. She was shot by an officer with a pepper ball launcher. Again, as you can hear her there, live on the air. It was so good to hear her immediately clarify when she said she was shot that thats what it was. Cnns chief media correspondent and anchor of reliable sourc sources, brian stelter, joining us here. Just two examples here, obviously, but brian, what are you hearing about some of these cases that were seeing that, yes, it is dangerous to be out there with everybody. Its dangerous for everybody. But for reporters specifically its dangerous for everybody seems like somethings happening. Yeah. In some cases, it is the police that is firing at folks, and thats whats causing injuries among reporters, as well as protesters. In other cases, protesters are ganging up on members of the media at some of these protests. Its happening in both Different Directions in these cases. Look, we all saw the arrest of our cnn crew on friday morning. That was shocking. Friday night ended with two other arrests in las vegas of two other photographers, of two photographers there who were then released the next morning. On saturday, we continued to see examples of reporters being hit by tear gas, by rubber bullets, et cetera. In pittsburgh, there was a photojournalist beaten by members of a mob and then rescued by other protesters. So, theres been a lot of these skirmishes. Some are pointing the finger at the police, saying the police are being way too aggressive, way too violent in these crowds. In other cases, though, protesters, or rioters are actually being the aggressors and beating up on cars, beating up on news trucks and vehicles, et cetera. Look, i think the reason why were seeing so many incidents against journalists is because we are seeing such widespread disturbance across the country. I spoke with dulles brinkley overnight, our cnn historian, who says he hasnt seen spasms of violence and rioting like this, as widespread as it is right now, since 1968, because were talking about big cities like philly and l. A. , but were also talking about smaller cities. Grand rapids, michigan, had heavy looting overnight, scattered looting in austin, texas, vandalism in cities like nashville, tucson, scottsdale. I mean, the list goes on and on. A lot of this is because protests get out of hand. In other cases, you know, these are we were hearing from protesters who say they feel they are being provoked, they are being challenged by the police and that the police are the aggressors. Look, this is going to go back and forth. Its going to go on and on. My fear, christi and victor, is that every time we see videos of police being too aggressive, and every time we see videos of rioters engaging in property destruction, its just going to cause more the day after, the day after, the day after. Yeah, well see what this leads to today. We talked about how this is happening while there is a pandemic going on. Have you noticed that this is changing how people are demonstrating, protesting . I think its amazing how these stories have collided, in some ways in the worst ways. You know, theyre also seeing the best of humanity in these moments where people are looking out for each other. Theres a protester in columbus, ohio, who put up a bottle of Hand Sanitizer so folks who were coming out to protest could try to do so safely, you know. So, there are these moments where youre reminded that were in the midst of one national emergency, even while people are protesting against another national emergency, you know. Im certainly seeing that in new york city, where there are multiple marches every day now of protesters in different places organizing, trying to be socially distant, but in some cases unable to do so. And i think were going to continue to see these two stories collide because its impossible for them not to. All right. Brian stelter, always appreciate seeing you, so thank you. Good morning. Thanks. You can see more of him on reliable sources today at 11 00 a. M. Eastern on cnn. So, damage assessments are under way right now in cities across the country following another violent night of protests.

A fifth night of protests and more looting, more arson, more violence, more arrests. The fires raged across los angeles overnight. Thousands of protesters you see marching through the streets. Yeah, frightening, isnt it . That south of los angeles in santa ana. Protesters were throwing rocks, bottle rockets, fireworks at police. According to the cnn affiliate there. Thankfully, no one was injured. This video as well is from our cnn affiliate in seattle, reporting, too, that a Security Guard look at this took an ar15style rifle from a protester. The weapon had been taken from a Police Vehicle that was then set on fire. More than 27 arrests there overnight. To philadelphia now. Dozens of people arrested and at least 13 philadelphia Police Officers hurt. Firefighters throughout the night still there fighting the fires. And this from dallas. Pretty graphic. Protesters attacked a man carrying a machete. According to dallas police, the man was there, he says trying to protect his store. Wow. And you know what, were seeing a lot of really sad images out of florida as well. And its the same thing, the protests begin non violate, then they shift. This in miami. At one point, firefighters were trying to put out the flames of a Burning Police car. Now, demonstrators also attempted to block traffic on what would normally be a busy highway. Rosa flores reports on whats going on there. Reporter im in downtown miami, where protests have been going on for hours. Take a look behind me. Protesters are taking a knee, which is what weve been seeing all around the country. At different times throughout the evening, there have been clashes with police. At one time, both the northbound and the southbound lanes of i95 were closed in downtown miami because protesters overtook the highway. At one point, we know that at least two vehicles went up in flames. That, of course, prompted the Fire Department to rush to those areas to put the fire out. But again, very tense moments here in miami, as protests continue for hours. The officials in this city and the county have issued a curfew that is mandatory. And so, were going to wait and see what happens with these protesters, because the curfew hours have already started. Rosa flores, cnn, miami. Rosa, thanks. The thousands of people marching across this country demonstrating because they are protesting the treatment of george floyd, his death. Among them, two young nba stars who hope their voices will make a difference. I just love hitting the open road and telling people that Liberty Mutual customizes your insurance, so you only pay for what you need [squawks] only pay for what you need. Liberty. Liberty. Liberty.

Ive always been faand still going for my best, even though i live with a higher risk of stroke due to afib not caused by a heart valve problem. So if theres a better treatment than warfarin. I want that too. Eliquis. Eliquis is proven to reduce stroke risk better than warfarin. Plus has significantly less major bleeding than warfarin. Eliquis is fdaapproved and has both. Whats next . Reeling in a nice one. Dont stop taking eliquis unless your doctor tells you to, as stopping increases your risk of having a stroke. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding.

He is the youngest player ever to be voted Vice President of the National Basketball players association. He once said that people often get comfortable in their roles in life and forget about those who are uncomfortable. Brown hasnt forgotten. Driving 15 hours from boston to atlanta could not have been comfortable. Still, brown was there along with pacers star and fellow nba Vice President mike brogdon, megaphone in hand and a sign that said, i cant breathe.

Raiders receiver zay jones was near at store near his home in los angeles yesterday and an older white woman approached him, saying she was from minnesota, apologized, then with tears in his eyes looked at him and said, you matter to me. Zay sent me this message last night to share with our viewers. Listen. I hesitated on giving her a hug, because with the pandemic and everything, i dont know how people are going to react or, you know, practicing social distancing, if i should have stayed away. But i asked her if it was okay if i gave her a hug. And i did. And instantly, you could see the tears begin to stream down her eyes. That moment was just so special. It was just so genuine and organic that i knew it was coming from a great place, and it just reminded me to just love others. Take the opportunity to look around, see whos around, grab that person and just show them that you care for that person, that you love them. Reporter victor, christi, jones says the woman cried in his arms, told him how important it is to spread love. Zay says that inspired him. He will never forget it. Hes always going to pay that forward. And he said he never got her name, but if shes watching, he wanted to say, just know the impact you had and that i love you for that. Wow. Back to you, victor. I hope she is hearing it this morning. That is something else. Coy wire, thank you so much, coy. Thank you, coy. Coming up next, some of the realities of being black in 21stcentury america.
