The sixth day of demonstrations began in a uniquely low key Baltimore way with a longtime activist and barbecue cook Duane “Shorty” Davis cooking for a small crowd in War Memorial Plaza.
Davis called it an “Art and Activism” event, an avenue for members of the community to eat, showcase art and talk about racism in America.
“Today we’re going to practice civility. We’re going to practice education. We’re going to practice entertainment. And we’re going to practice fellowship,” said Davis, taking a break from grilling meat.
As his event ended, several hundred protesters began assembling around him near City Hall for a separate demonstration and another group began marching miles away on Reisterstown Road in Baltimore County near Franklin High School. Two other protests, one in Harford County in the afternoon and a second on Reisterstown Road near Northern Parkway later in the evening showed that the movement started after the death of George Floyd at the hands of police officers in Minneapolis last week showed no signs of being over.
