Trump Protest / Miami

Miami protestors met in front of Bayfront Park downtown on Friday evening, November 11, to protest the presidential election of Donald Trump. The crowd gained momentum as it marched north on Biscayne Blvd, then veered east on I-395 where it held traffic both ways for about an hour with help from the Miami Police. The protest grew to a few thousand people at it's peak but remained organized, passionate and peaceful. 

#BlackLivesMatter Protest

After a heavy week of national tragedy, Miami came together Saturday, July 9, to protest and march against police brutality and gun violence. A crowd of all ages and races slowly formed in front of the Wynwood Walls starting at 6 p.m. People brought signs and stood peacefully in protest for an hour, occasionally chanting phrases in unison like "Hands up, guns down" and "No justice, no peace, no violent police" before marching around Wynwood and then all the way down to Bayside and back. The congregation started accumulating momentum as it moved downtown, proudly engulfing half the street and eventually Biscayne Boulevard. Slideshow for Miami New Times.
