Washington Residents Bang Pots and Pans as Post-Curfew Noise Protest

Residents in Washington, DC’s Mount Pleasant neighborhood banged pots and pans as a noise protest after the city imposed a 7 pm curfew, video from June 2 shows.

Washington Mayor Muriel E Bowser placed the city under a curfew from 7 pm to 6 am as of Monday, in the wake of demonstrations responding to the police-involved death of George Floyd, local news reported.

Locals said that the protest, known as a cacerolazo in Latin America, started at 7 pm on Tuesday and continued for at least an hour. Credit: Maddie Hagerman via Storyful
