I attended the Black Lives Matter Protest on Capitol Hill in Seattle, Washington near Cal Anderson Park on June 2, 2020. This protest was the 4th day of protesting in Seattle, despite a strict, city-wide curfew of 5pm. The protests are a reaction to the death of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, in addition to hundreds of years of systematic racism and police brutality in the United States. These protestHere are some images I captured.

Several medic stations were set up throughout Capitol Hill to treat emergency medical situations including tear gas, rubber bullets, and flash bangs. In addition to supplies such as water, milk, and food, these people have volunteered their time for several days in a row to provide a restroom and any other needs protesters might have during the long days of speaking their minds.
Medic stations are set up all over Capitol Hill and this one is fully stocked with supplies to help protesters with any injuries or medical needs, including providing a restroom. They say to always look for the helpers and there were many on Tuesday, June 2nd, 2020.
