The protests erupted in about 30 cities, including Chicago and Los Angeles, and many protests were held in New York, Miami, Atlanta and Georgia.

Steps were also being taken to evacuate crowds around the White House in Washington, and police in Los Angeles used tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse protesters.
