A striking image of a line of LAPD officers marching single file past a group of people holding picket signs on the sidewalk. The angle of their procession matching that of the storefronts behind them. On the far side of the street, a news van is parked under a thrift shop. There are a row of reporters and protest marshalls standing between the police and the protesters.
