Large-scale protests continued across the U.S. Tuesday night as curfews were defied and demonstrators again clashed with law enforcement near the White House. Overall, it was a calmer evening than in recent days.
From New York to Los Angeles, demonstrators once again massed to speak out against the killing of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died after a white Minneapolis police officer knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes. The incident has renewed concerns about police use of force that helped spark the Black Lives Matter movement.
