OLYMPIA, Washington—Protesters who marched Tuesday in Olympia, Washington remained peaceful but made their feelings about law enforcement plain, chanting on the steps of the state capitol that Americans who wear law-enforcement badges are “bastards.”
Police officer Derek Chauvin was videotaped kneeling on Floyd’s neck during his arrest.
The group that organized Tuesday’s protest, Olympia Showing Up for Racial Justice, says it its purpose is “mobilizing & organizing white people” for social justice.
In contrast with nighttime clashes that have pitted police against rioters and looters outside Olympia city hall a few blocks away, Tuesday’s daytime march was peaceful.
