 In Philadelphia, police clash with supporters of Baltimore protests

People everywhere are protesting police brutality. In Philadelphia hundreds of people gathered to help protest in front of city hall. Police and protesters started to come into contact soon after. Many say they want the equality of justice that they all deserve. The police were to have been reported to be pushing the people back and trying to intimidate them. Many other places in America are protesting the treatment from the police everywhere.

In my opinion, this is a good cause to stand for. People should not have to be afraid of being hurt or unequally treated by the very people who were supposed to protect them. I do, however believe that people shouldn't be getting hurt over this cause. I don't see the need for violence in this movement and any that has been done should cease.

This relates to our class because it deals with the government oppression or the belief of and people fighting against. It deals with people and equality and their rights being protected.
