Across Los Angeles on Saturday, protesters marched to show outrage over the police killing of George Floyd and demand changes to the system.

More than a hundred congregants and friends of the Cochran Avenue Baptist ChurchAt one point Pastor Charles Johnson asked the marchers to take a knee. He then led them in prayer.Advertisement

Antoinette Jordan, 50, marched alongside her boyfriend, Quinn. Jordan attends the church and said it was her third protest march. These demonstrations “help give people a voice,” she said. “I learned: The louder you sing, the more audible you are, the better your message comes across.” Chants of “care not cages” and “defund the sheriff” rang through the air as two dozen sheriff’s deputies looked on.In the crowd, medical workers spoke about how they have been held up as heroes during the coronavirus pandemic. It led many of them to believe that they should use their platform to speak up about how deadly mass incarceration has been to communities of color.
