Wake County, Raleigh, NC Post Riot - a photo on Flickriver

            What began as peaceful demonstrations the last week of May 2020 in Raleigh, NC and across the country as a result of the death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis Police, devolved into chaos after sundown.   Police officers fired tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters. Looters destroyed monuments, storefronts, businesses, vehicles, and city and state property on Wilmington, Fayetteville and Salisbury streets.  Raleighites are now left to pick up the pieces, prepare for more unrest and seek ways to heal racial divisions.  80% of businesses have suffered probably irreparable financial damage. Downtown Raleigh was once a lively place to be at night.  All that is left are boarded up businesses, the homeless and a passing vehicle now and then.
