Another peaceful Black Lives Matter protest over the weekend here in San Diego. Thousands of people took to the streets on Saturday to have their voices heard. The march started in downtown and ended up in Hillcrest. There’s been a large police presence at all the marches this last week. Yet I haven’t seen any acrimony or antagonistic behavior on either side. I’ve heard about some, but I haven’t witnessed anything myself. Just a lot of passion in the streets. Continue to stay safe out there.
June 4th saw the largest protest to date in San Diego from the recent Black Lives Matter rallies. While others have had varying degrees of pushback, looting, and violence, this one was quite peaceful. The energy and urgency was palpable, but it remained peaceful throughout.
Needed an afternoon pick me up yesterday so took a walk to get a dirty chai. I picked a spot my wife recommended about a mile from the studio so I could log some time on the streets. Bold, graphic elements are what presented. Take some time this Labor Day weekend to explore what’s around you. Immerse yourself, be present. But most of all enjoy the 3 day holiday!
