Thousands of protesters streamed into Washington D.C. and other U.S. cities on Saturday in continued protests against police brutality1 and racial injustice2. We get more from AP's Ben Thomas.

周六,数千名抗议者涌入华盛顿特区以及其他一些美国城市,持续抗议警方的暴力行为和种族歧视。请听美联社记者本·托马斯发回的详细报道。

Neither the steamy summer heat nor coronavirus fears could keep thousands of protesters from gathering3 across the DC metro4 area intent on marching toward the White House.

炙热的暑气和对新冠的恐惧都没能阻止数千名抗议者聚集在华盛顿特区,向白宫方向游行示威。

Military vehicles and officers in fatigues5 closed off much of downtown Washington to traffic ahead of the planned for March. Mayor Muriel Bowser was cheered as she walked to the portion of sixteenth street near the White House that she renamed Black Lives Matter Plaza6.

一些军用车辆和疲惫的警官们封锁了华盛顿的很多地方,想要提前阻止游行。市长穆丽尔·鲍泽在走向白宫附近的第16街时获得了人们的欢呼声。穆丽尔·鲍泽已将这里改名为“黑人的命也是命广场”。

These types of gatherings7 remind us about us being human and about the need for all of us as one human race coming together to solve the problems of our community.

这类集会提醒我们,大家都是人,我们应该以共同为人的身份团结起来,一起解决各种问题。
