NEW: Protestors damage windows outside CNN's headquarters in Atlanta on Friday as protests against the fatal arrest of George Floyd grow unruly.
National protests over George Floyd's death was 'conflagration waiting to happen'when a police station and other buildings were torched, and protesters there and in neighboring St. Paul hit the streets in demonstrations marred by violence, vandalism and looting., the 46-year-old black man heard crying out"I can't breathe" during a police encounter on Monday and whose death has become the latest flash point in a string of fatalities involving African Americans.
"This is a young rage, the same way young people took to the streets in the 1960s, 70s and 80s," Saje Mathieu, a history professor at the University of Minnesota who lives in suburban Minneapolis, said."They're saying, 'We're already cut. We're already hurt. We're already bruised. There's no other way to communicate my pain and rage than to take to the streets.
That pain has resonated in major cities across the country, where protests were expected to unfold Friday night and over the weekend from Atlanta to Oakland, California, and Denver to Dallas.
