#LA: 10 things they won't show you on the news about the Pan Pacific Park/Fairfax rally:
1)Families of multiple murdered black folks were present; leaders did a roll call
2)That #BlackLivesMatter co-founder Patrisse Cullors gave a rousing/moving speech. (1/6)
3)Multiple groups of volunteers passing out free water to protestors, & folks reminding each other to keep their masks on
4)That (predominantly white) local homeowners came out their homes to honk their horns, pump their fists into the air, & support protestors (2/6)
