Over the weekend, city after city sounded like this.

This is Seattle.

He has no place.

In Minneapolis, protesters filled a local park.

For many of us in our community, this is the first time we were even able to voice our fear and our anger.

And I really am so grateful for everyone willing to listen.

In Pittsburgh, the actress Sandra O. got out a bullhorn and led the crowd in a chant.

All of these people were proud to be Asian.

I belong here. I belong here. I'm proud to be Asian.

All of these people were coming together to try to make sense of the shooting that took place last week in Atlanta, a shooting that left eight people dead, six of them, Asian women.

In Atlanta itself, newly elected senators, Raphael Warnock, and John Ossoff, spoke to a crowd of hundreds at the Georgia State Capitol.

I want you to know that I love you.

And when I say that, I don't mean that in any sentimental way.

I love you.

Love you, love you. Love you.

And justice is what love looks like in public.

So we've got to get some justice.

But Lisa Hagan, who's been reporting on the shootings for WAB, the local public radio station.

She says there's one way in which these protests sounded different than other protests she's covered.

You know, it's become sort of mainstream and normal after a horrific act of violence, especially in the black community,

to say their name, to say out loud the people who've been taken from their communities.

And in this case, apparently family members have asked for that not to happen.
