Black Lives Matter protest takes over Gore Park on Saturday
Here are some moments from the protest in Gore Park on Saturday
Chants, hollers, clenched fists and signs took over the space at Gore Park on Saturday as Black Lives Matter demonstrators congregated to protest.
The rally at 1 p.m. saw more than 100 people assemble to call for an end to anti-black racism and partially defunding the local police budget.
The group eventually joined another large group of demonstrators at city hall.
Here are some of the images from Gore Park:
