Welcome to cbs this morning. There were more scenes like that and its good to see, but lets get right to the news. A week after the killing of george floyd peaceful protests continue across the country amid unrelenting public outrage. In los angeles, hundreds gathered outside the mayors house yesterday objecting to Police Shooting tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters. Tens of thousands of people marched in houston where city uf George Floyds old high school. Tony . Yeah. New york citys protest lasted all afternoon and it continued after a nighttime curfew set up because of outbreaks of looting in previous nights. We saw very little last night all around the u. S. Our correspondent Jericka Duncan is in Lower Manhattan at the justice complex where one of many demonstrations in new york took place last night. Jericka, good morning. Reporter good morning to you. Its very calm and quiet here now, but as you can see, there are barricades surrounding me which were used to keep protesters away from federal buildings and area businesses, and ive been out here for the last couple of days speaking with those protesters. All of them say that they are here to stop Police Violence and to demand equality. R there were peaceful protests all over new york city including union square. Doctors and nurses from the front line for covid also joined some of the demonstrations. We see how racism affects our patients and tth no peace even visitors to new york say they are moved by the passion of the protesters. Samuel kwamo from switzerland joined them. This issue is an issue that speaks to all of us. Its an issue of basic humanity and basic decency. Reporter protesters also spoke out in cities from indianapolis to los angeles. In denver the police chief marched arm in arm with the crowd. We have many of the same concerns. We need to bridge that gap. We need to bridge that divide. Protests have taken place in at least 169 cities across all 50 states. More than 9,000 have been arrested nationwide, some for blocking highways and breaking curfew, but other arrests include people who have taken advantage of the situation by looting and stealing. Crimes like those have distracted from the protests. In cents louis, the community is mourning the loss of retired Police Captain david dorn who was shot and killed early tuesday during a looting at a pawn shop. And in one instance in atlanta, Six Police Officers were charged in an assault of two College Students attempting to leave a protest last weekend. Two of the officers involved have already been fired from the department. The couple says they had witnessed another friend being assaulted by police before they were tased while a news crew showed the incident live on television. What was that conversation like from the time that you all were thrown out of your cars . It had a predetermined mindset here like they basically are going out claiming to wreak havoc for no reason. I asked several times, what did we do . I dont understand. I was never once told. Reporter last night was certainly more calm here in new york city when compared to previous nights. That 8 00 p. M. Curfew, act neeshgs will remain will remain in effect throughout the week. The vast majorist those who turned out to demonstrate in new york were peaceful. I saw two protests. One on broadway and one on fifth avenue and both very orderly. Our lead National Correspondent David Begnaud was with one group who marched through midtown manhattan and joins us from outside trump tower where the protest ended. David, how did it go . Reporter effectively, anthony, like you, we walked up on this group randomly. Theyre marching through midtown and everybody is behind the line and the organizers were strict. At one point they were chanting weal not agitate the police because we want to get home safe. No one agitated anyone, really and the police let them own the streets so to speak. They moved through manhattan and their chants were echoing off the sky scapers off the concrete jungle and in the shadow of kow honor of george floyd. We wanted to hear from them. In order to do that, we joined them in their march to listen. People of color have been speaking out about their oppression, about their brutalization for years and yet we are still having to do this. Were still walking the streets. Were still being murdered in the streets. Were not being heard. This movement is about uplifting our community, about changing the narrative, about changing the way that black people are viewed, treated in this country. You need to listen with an open ear and an open heart. Close your mouths and open your ears. We are telling you what were angry about. We are telling you what were pain frl about and were telling you what our experiences are. Reporter show people what your sign says. When your complexion is a weapon you are never unarmed. Everyone was murdered as an unarmed black or woman and the common factor is they always feel that theyre threatened and if youre not armed what else is threatening you . My skin complexion because you automatically assume that i am somebody that is a danger to you just because simply of the color of my skin. All we want is for our voices to be heard. Thats it. We want to do it peacefully. We want no problems. We want it to end, but it takes two people to resolve a problem and it takes two sides to resolve a problem. Reporter the woman you just heard from is dani bell. She told us she wants to be a District Attorney or a judge some day because gayle, as she said to us, i would like to hold people accountable who commit injustices. Another powerful report there, david. Did i hear gayle there or am i picking this one up . All right. Im going to take this, dave. David, thank you very much. Moving to washington, d. C. , protest in washington continued outside a wider security perimeter outside the white house. Thousands of military personnel are working with police to keep demonstrators in line. President trump is still pushing for more widespread use of the military to put down protests all across the country and our weijia jiang reports on another long night of demonstrations in reporter protesters demanded justice late into the night outside the white house where park police and military officers in riot gear stood guard behind eightfoot fences. Earlier, demonstrators used powerful body language as they filled the streets. Some said they were emboldened by President Trumps recent action. We were met with pepper spray and then the National Guard and tased instead of solving the real issue at hand. Why is he spending money on that type of resources instead of taking care of what were asking him to . Hes not listening. Reporter at the Lincoln Memorial National Guard troops lined the steps among the nearly 3,000 that the trump administra dispatched across the city. The president has threatened to send military to states that he believes are not doing enough to draw violent crowds. How dare you pervert the honor of our military by threatening to use them against their fellow americans . Reporter people who are protesting peacefully ought to be able to do that. Reporter as backlash continues to brew after a photoop on monday, mr. Trump visited a shrine yesterday one dedicated to Pope John Paul ii. Washington archbishop Wilton Gregory issued an unusually scathing statement about the visit. I find it baffling and reprehensible that any catholic facility would allow itself to be egregiously sed manipulated. The moment has come for our nation to deal with systemic racism. Reporter former Vice President joe biden told voters he is the lead tore unite the nation. Our country is crying out for leadership. Leadership that can unite us, leadership that bring us together. Leadership that can recognize pain and deep grief of communities that have had a knee on their neck for a long time. Reporter new this morning a department of defense adviser has resigned after secretary mark esper joined President Trump at st. Johns church on monday. The official accused esper of violating his oath of office and supporting the use of force to disperse protesters. Esper said he had no advanced notice and did not know where he was going, claiming he thought he was going to serve a damage and talk to troops. Anthony . Weijia, thank you. The state of minnesota has filed a civil rights charge against the Minneapolis Police department over the death of george floyd. The investigation will look back ten years for signs of systemic discrimination. This comes as George Floyds family and friends continue to push for justice. Jamie yuccas is following the story in minneapolis where she spoke with floyds 6yearold daughter and her mother. He just didnt deserve that. For roxie washington, seeking justice for george floyd is only part of the tragic story. He loved god. He loved children. He loved his kid. What will you miss most about him . Everything. Reporter washington is the mother of floyds 6yearold daughter giana. Who is now without a father. I pray to god that when she grows up [ indiscernible ] we asked gianna about what she loved most about her father. He used to carry me on his uhhuh. L of the me wast it was super fun. Hat was fun about it . Like, you were in the sky. Like an airplane. What would he say to you . He loved me a lot. Gianna heard the news of her fathers death on television. She said how did he die . And i said he couldnt breathe. This young lady is traumatized forever. Its not going to go away. It has changed the trajectory of her life. Justin miller is washingtons attorney. Hes joining protesters around minneapolis and the country calling on all four officers involved in floyds death to be charged and convicted even though he says it will never be true justice. You cant put a value on a father. You never bring him back. Never. And you cant put a value on it. It is a priceless thing that far too many black children in this country are dealing with the loss of. Washington says shes speaking up so that this never happens to another family again. I have to be strong because thats what he would want me to do. Do you hope that theres change so that she grows up in a different world . I pray that theres change. Weve got targets on our back and its the truth. The floyd family attorney told cbs news theyre expecting charges to be filed against the other three officers involved. As for the Minneapolis Police department the chief says it will cooperate with the states human rights commissions investigation. Gayle . Jamie yuccas, that was tough. Thank you very much.

She said my daddy changed the world. Shes 6 years old. Boy, thank you very much, jamie yuccas. In the mid evaluate nationwide protest and the coronavirus pandemic on top of that, states held primary elections. Ed, what did they decide . For one thing joe biden is inching closer. We still have to call him the presumed nominee because he hasnt earned the nominee. There were other notable nht. In iowa, republican congressman steve king who has served nine terms wont get to serve a tenth. He lost to state senator randy feenstra. They had stripped him after he questioned the term White Nationalism is offensive. The city of ferguson, missouri, just elected eeso the female mayor. Ferguson, as you remember was the first place of the shooting death of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen by a white Police Officer. And the site of the Republican National convention. President trump tweeted last night that the Republican Party is being forced to move out of North Carolina because of the states democratic governor. He said that roy cooper could not guarantee the republicans can use the Spectrum Arena in charlotte as originally planned and he said he would be forced to seek another state as host. Governor cooper said he would be happy if republicans would hold a scaled donvention and down from the plans that included 50,000 attendees in order to comply with coronavirus restrictions. The Republican Party are looking at sites in nashville, florida and georgia, and the governors would be happy to have the convention, but mayors in those cities and states have said no, thank you. Anthony . Convention in limbo, ed. Thank you very much. Ahead, an update to our yearlong investigation into policing in america.
