protesters

Twenty people are facing prosecution amid reports of at least 50 vehicle-ramming incidents at protests since late May.

Protesters in North Carolina's capital pulled down parts of a Confederate monument Friday night and hanged one of the toppled statues from a light post.

As anti-racism protests continue, people with guns are now coming to them. Rampant rumors of antifa violence draw some; others say they are protecting protesters.

One protester in New York City said George Floyd's death moved him to action. "As a black person, I've actually been relatively passive."

For many Americans, it goes without saying that the police help maintain public safety. But many others — especially black Americans — see the police as more of a threat than a protective force.

The numbers of protesters barricaded in has dwindled to about 100, and their food is rapidly depleting after police surrounded the campus on Sunday. Police have arrested about 1,100 in the past day.

Police are also accusing protesters of tossing Molotov cocktails off bridges. Authorities said on Thursday that they've arrested 224 people since the previous day.

Two shocking incidents of violence mark a day that saw police use tear gas and water cannons and protesters throw bricks and Molotov cocktails.
