Tens of thousands of people took to the streets in France, defying a ban on large public gatherings to express outrage over George Floyd’s fate and that of a Frenchman of African descent who died in police custody four years ago

Thousands gathered in support of the Black Lives Matter movement in Frankfurt and Berlin. Hamburg police said more than 1,000 people had gathered Friday afternoon outside the U.S. consulate, far more than the 250 participants police had permitted to maintain enough distance between people.
