Protests nationwide over floyd's death -- including here in st.

Joseph today...at the corner of north belt highway and frederick avenue .

While it may have happened hundreds of miles away from here protesters here said the impact hits close to home <<ron johnson reportingthey gathered at the corner of belt highway and frederick with a message to share with others black lives do matter in this town.with signs in hand, (sot) and cries for justice for george floyd, a man they may have never met but they say are all too familiar with his story.floyd's untimely death after an encounter with police in minneapolis.

Has sent shockwaves across the country.

Protesters said its bringing the issue of race once again to the forefront.

Racism has always been here and it will never stop being here until we show the true light of what racism is.

For this group thoughts and prayers, and social media posts weren't enough.

They wanted to take their message to the streets something has to change, somebody has to step up sometime.i contacted a few people i knew that had similar beliefs that are also just as upset as i am about it.

That message: taking a stand against racism and what they say causes it.

Pure ignorance is fuelling racismwhile at the same time they say, spreading a message of tolerance, encouraging others to be more understanding.

See life from another person's point of view.

Try to be respectful try to be understandable.>> organizers of this protest say they are planning a second one here at this same location tomorrow from noon to five, they said they wanted to give more people the chance to speak out who maybe weren't able to do so today.

Live in st.
