Christine Haddadd stands on the bridge over ERL Thornton Freeway and South Akard Street holding a sign protesting police brutality. She said six police cars had driven past her, and two of the officers driving had flipped her off while one waved at her. I dont know what to do about any of this, she said. This seemed like a good way to get a bunch of peoples attention at once.

On Sunday, the City of Dallas imposed a 7 p.m. curfew on parts of the city in response to Friday and Saturday’s protests that ended in riots. However, demonstrators peacefully gathered in parts of the city, including for a vigil at Freedman’s Memorial Cemetery to mourn the loss of George Floyd and other black lives lost during encounters with the police.
The Mesquite Tri-East chapter of the National Advancement for the Association of Colored People also held a press conference in front of the Mesquite City Hall where president Henry Brown called for an end to knee and chokeholds by police when making arrests.
