Washington, DC will launch most of the city’s mayor on Saturday to prepare for mass protests – the city’s mayor shined a real spotlight on the White House’s decision to rename the streets around the “Black Lives Mater Plaza”.

Bowser, hit by President Trump as “clumsy”, later released another view of BLM Plaza.
“You are awake? Here is the view from space” Wrote early Saturdayand an aerial shot of the DC plaza, the scene of mass protests and high-power projectors.
Bowser announces renaming early Friday: “The section of the 16th street in front of the White House is officially“ Black Lives Matter Plaza ”.
Renaming is seen as a public discount as President Trump alleged that he used military force to clear demonstrators days ago.
