Protesters plan on blocking Twin Cities Marathon just before finish line twin (Read 447 times)

I saw no protesters but I saw lots of runners in BLM shirts, and also in those mocking signs or saying ignorant things when people in BLM shirts came by.

I had had an emotionally traumatic week and needed a win and would have been VERY disappointed to have my race blocked, and was mad at first when I heard the idea, but when I heard people talking when I got to WI and MN, I became more understanding.  The things people said to me openly showing complete misunderstanding of the racism currently entrenched in our system!!!

For all the south has the reputation as racist, it was worse than I have personally encountered publicly in Atlanta.  It convinced me more awareness is needed, even if by extreme measure I don't understand Or wouldn't have chosen myself.
