The nationwide protests over the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on Memorial Day were not just events locals witnessed on television. Hundreds also gathered at street corners in Poway and 4S Ranch to oppose racism and law enforcement violence against Blacks.
Unlike in other parts of the country, including La Mesa and downtown San Diego, local protests remained peaceful and violence-free as those of all ages took to the streets.
While COVID-19 pandemic restrictions were in place to keep crowds from forming for health reasons, the protests were allowed to go on as part of people’s right to freedom of speech. Locally, people were often seen wearing masks, even though social distancing was near impossible in most cases.
