Australians Plan Weekend Rallies In Solidarity With U.S. ‘Black Lives Matter’

By Scott Neuman

Marchers shout slogans and hold up placards Tuesday during a "rally for justice" in Sydney, protesting the deaths of members of the Aboriginal community in Australia and the death of George Floyd, an unarmed black man who died in police custody in Minneapolis. Minn.

Tens of thousands of people were expected in major cities across the country as authorities in Sydney, citing COVID-19 concerns, obtained court backing for a ban on a rally there.
