This footage was filmed and produced on 19th June 2020. Thousands gathered in Atlanta to continue calls for social justice and an end to racial violence in America. It was part of the OneRace March in Atlanta. The event was being held in Centennial Olympic park and met its capacity of 6,000 people. The march was held this year on Juneteenth, a significant moment in history for Black Americans, as it was the day enslaved people learned of their freedom because of the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation by President Abraham Lincoln. Co-directors of OneRace said the date was chosen to remember the historic date while "calling for liberty and justice for all in present times." Filmed by Scott Free.
