New York’s Fifth Avenue was shut down Saturday by more than 25,000 marchers—the largest demonstration yet—in just one of many protests nationwide against the killing of unarmed Black people in America.
The sea of protesters stretched for more than a mile on one of the Big Apple’s biggest streets during one of the busiest times of the year. Thousands flock to the city on weekends to do some holiday shopping, see shows and gawk at the iconic holiday displays in windows and parks throughout Manhattan.
