In US news and current events today, the Seattle protest has taken a surprising turn, as protesters have taken over Seattle city hall and declared it the Capitol Hill Autonomous Free Zone, or CHAZ.

The George Floyd protests and Black Lives Matter protests against police brutality, police racism and systemic racism have sparked protests and clashes with police around the world. The BLM protests are especially interesting at the Seattle protests, where much like Minneapolis, the protesters have taken over municipal buildings in demand for change. The protesters are demanding the resignation of the Seattle mayor and other systemic changes before they relinquish control of the Capitol Hill Autonomous Free Zone, and we don’t yet know how the authorities will respond.
