In Seattle, Washington, protests against police brutality and racial discrimination are still ongoing. On the 14th local time, this reporter came to the central area of the Seattle protest and held a dialogue with the demonstrators here.
Although more than two months have passed since Floyd's death, dozens of people marched through the streets of downtown Seattle in the evening to protest police brutality and racial discrimination.
And in Seattle, the heart of all these protests, it belongs to Anderson Park in the Capitol Hill area. On June 8, it was occupied by demonstrators and announced the formation of the Capitol Hill Autonomous Region (CHAZ). It wasn't until July 1 that Seattle police traveled to the area to clear the area of those left behind.
After the clearance, police announced the temporary closure of Anderson Park to this day. Still, some demonstrators returned, tearing down police notices and writing "Our community doesn't need police," turning Anderson Park into an area for the homeless.
In the past two weeks, the police have continued to clean up the homeless, and on the morning of the same day as the reporter, the Seattle police confronted the demonstrators, and then drove away a large number of people and arrested 4 people. (CCTV reporter Xu Dezhi)
