Protesters gathered on the streets and under trees along Central Park West in Harlem.

“I just pray that it doesn’t stop after this week,” one protester told CBS2’s Cory James.

“We’re here today to do our part because someone at some time risked their lives for us,” another protester said.

The demonstration, called #TheTakeBack Rally to Reclaim Stolen Lives and Looted Dreams, brought thousands out. in the heat, they walked over seven miles to Greenwich Village.

“There’s not one mother of a brown or black son that doesn’t wonder how many years they have left,” one woman said.

“We’re living in a time where this generation has stepped up and enough is enough,” one man said.

Carmen Perez organized the event.

She says the huge turnout is a reminder the work isn’t over.

“Although they arrested the four officers for the killing of George Floyd, there are many officers that still need to be held accountable here in the city of New York,” Perez said.

Perez came up with five demands. They include redirecting funds to black communities in New York City, passing anti-chokehold legislation in the state and ending the police secrecy law known as 50-A.
