The gentleman waving the flag worked diligently the night before to complete the design. The flag is a symbol of peace and unity. A group of educators wore t-shirts that read, White silence equals white consent, Black Lives Matter (center).
It was great to see counter- protesters demonstrating unity and taking a stand to reject the rally supporters message of hate. According to a Washington Post article, an estimated 40,000 protesters were in attendance.
