More than 100 cars paraded through North Indianapolis early this morning in a Wake Up for Black Lives rally.

For those living on the streets of downtown Indianapolis, it's been a tough few months with increased health risks, job opportunities lost, obstacles to services, and then protests and riots.

Thousands of protesters are gathered at the Indiana Statehouse Saturday to bring attention to the case of Dreasjon "Sean" Reed, the 21-year old black man shot by Indianapolis police last month and the history of black people killed by police officers, nationally.

Many Indianapolis downtown businesses are suffering after being shut down due to COVID-19 and now dealing with the aftermath of the riots.

Protesters in a rural Indiana city who took to the streets to condemn racism and police killings of black people encountered bystanders who were holding rifles during the demonstration.

Indianapolis Mayor Joe Hogsett has issued a new curfew order for Marion County that will be in effect Friday and Saturday from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m.

Dozens of protesters gathered outside the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department's Northwest District Wedneday to draw attention to the case of Dreasjon Sean Reed, the 21-year old black man shot by an Indianapolis police officer on May 6 on the city's northwest side.

Demonstrations are flaring up across the country to protest the deaths of Black Americans at the hands of police. Theyre also calling attention to broader inequalities. One of those areas -- health disparities -- kills Black Americans in massive numbers.

More than 100 people gathered at Monument Circle Thursday evening, nearly a week after protests first started in downtown Indianapolis in response to police violence, including the police shooting of Dreasjon Reed.

Indy 10 Black Lives Matter's Jessica Louise, South Bend Black Lives Matter's Jorden Giger, and Fort Wayne organizer Daylana Saunders discuss the week of protests and the demands for change.
