Pan Pacific Park is located in a family-friendly area of Los Angeles, filled with local shops and across the street from Park La Brea known for being home to Angeleno newbies. Right next door to the park is The Grove, an outdoor mall that is adjacent the iconic Original Farmers Market, an L.A. institution that attracts locals and tourists alike.
I have been to one other demonstration at Pan Pacific Park in the past; to put into context, it was for Black Lives Matters. Considering the current landscape and the insurmountable anger, frustration and sadness the Black community was feeling surrounding Floyd’s death, I knew this one was going to be different. I immediately noticed the number of people walking to the park while I was en route, and when I got there I found a huge crowd of people.
There were people of all races, ethnicities, genders and sexual preferences, providing a strong sense of community, support and passion anchored by the mantra ofas they held signs that paid tribute to Black lives lost because of police brutality. The message was unified across race lines with signs that read “Yellow Peril Supports Black Power” and “White People Do Something.” Many people were giving out bottles of water, face masks and food. It didn’t feel like a protest.
“We’re living in the middle of an uprising,” Cullors said. “Let’s be clear — we are in an uprising for Black life.” “They have told us we got a right to mourn and be in pain — fuck that shit! We got the right to be angry!” said Abdullah, before pointing out that it wasn’t enough that in Minneapolis one officer was arrested for killing Floyd. “It’s about those four officers who killed George Floyd — it’s about all these officers including the ones that are standing in our midst.
