BLACK LIVES MATTER PROTESTS IN KENSINGTON AND WINDSOR TERRACE HAVE NEW SCHEDULES


The Black Lives Matter protests in Kensington and Windsor Terrace have updated their schedules.

At these peaceful, family-friendly, anti-racism protests, protesters are following COVID-19 guidelines for face covering and social distancing. Because singing, chanting, and shouting are considered unsafe during the pandemic, protesters are expressing themselves with signs, pots and spoons, drums, and other instruments.

    • 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. every night through Juneteenth (Friday, June 19th), at Bartel-Pritchard Square on Prospect Park West at 15th Street. Windsor Terrace/South Slope Daily Black Lives Matter Gathering's Facebook page is at https://www.facebook.com/events/280190913036373.
