Near the conclusion of the Police Brutality March, Anarchist and other marchers open a corridor to receive fellow marchers who had been separated into two groups by police after a minor confrontation between police and marchers. Lawyers Guild members and others negotiated successfully with police to allow the marchers to reunite, defusing a tense standoff.

POLICE BRUTALITY MARCH

Demonstrators protest outside the Staple Center in downtown Los Angeles August 14, 2000.

About 1,000 demonstrators protesting Democratic presidential candidate Al Gore's links with Occidential Petroleum were escorted by police on bicycles as they staged a noisy and colorful march from the downtown area to the heavily fortified Staples Center.
