The president and his team have offered a string of conflicting explanations and excuses for why protesters were cleared from the area around Lafayette Square in … police allowed protesters to re-enter the area of 16th and H streets early Wednesday morning after a daylong closure while the new fencing was erected.After a sparse crowd attempted to reestablish makeshift barricades in the street, police again surged into the area and used force — including chemical irritants and stun grenades — At the site of a protest at Lincoln Park in the Capitol Hill neighborhood where some aren’t happy with this statue that shows Lincoln standing over a freed slave There were several law enforcement officers at Lincoln Park on Tuesday night.Turned around and seeing 30 or so MPD & Park Police officers positioned off to the side at this Lincoln Park rally Glen Foster led the protest to Lincoln Park, and he said the statue represents something that is not the embodiment of the American dream.Foster said the statue carries the message that “our freedom and liberation are only given by way of white people.”Lincoln looking down at black people “relegates us to being second-class citizens; that not right,” Foster said.In order to move forward, the statue needs to be taken down, and Foster said that protesters will be demonstrating daily.“And we’re not going to be here for feel-good marches or peaceful chants; we’re going to be here for change by any means necessary.”Elsewhere, visitors to the Lafayette Square area Tuesday also panned the statue removal effort, The Associated Press reported.Wenola Wade, a white resident of the District of Columbia, said she is frustrated that “we’re not far enough along” in dealing with systemic racism but added that “we can’t take down every single statue.
