Videos of Tuesday Night Protests

Peaceful protests took place all around the Upper West Side last night – with giant crowds gathering well past the 8pm curfew. Below you’ll find some videos of these protests as they progressed throughout the evening.

Around 7:30pm last night, Christopher Walsh took the following video from his apartment on 77th and Amsterdam (facing uptown):

Protestors march through UWS taking a stand for supporting a cause. But with non-violence ?? Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. – Martin Luther King . . . . . . . . . #throwkindnesslikeconfetti #lettherebelove #inspirationalquotes #motivationalquotes #alllivesmatter #blacklivesmatter #loveduringlockdown #loveisallyouneed #upperwestside #ilovenewyork #newyorkcity #topnewyorkphoto #blackouttuesday #ilovetheupperwestside #postcardsfromtheworld #helloworldpics #passionpassport #photooftheday #naturephotography #naturelovers #humansofnewyork #makelovenotwar #makeadifference #randomactsofkindness #everydaytoday
