Thousands gathered in London on Saturday to hold an anti-racist demonstration in solidarity with protests taking place in the U.S. We get more from Reuters Edward Baran.

Thousands of people rallied in the heart of London on Saturday to support U.S. protests against police brutality. They waved placards and chanted "No justice, no peace, no racist police."
The rolling global protests reflect rising anger over police treatment of ethnic minorities.
The British government had warned people to stay away because of the threat of the coronavirus. Huge crowds gathered at Parliament Square - making social distancing impossible.
Later, protesters stopped traffic as they marched towards the American Embassy. That's Reuters Edward Baran.
