In Denver in June, I saw a group of protestors teargassed, shot at with rubber bullets and arrested for throwing water bottles and setting off fireworks. SWAT was geared and ready to go by the afternoon that day after a very peaceful protest lead by Tay Anderson

I think that journalists — especially white ones — need to check ourselves on covering these protests. It is harrowing to see fellow reporters shot with non-lethal weapons on live television, but it is far from the most pressing issue right now.
