A wave of protests is spreading around the world protesting the death of a black man George Floyd, who was killed by crushing the neck of an American white police officer.

Thousands of people gathered in major cities such as London, England, and Paris, France, to commemorate Floyd and protest to end discrimination, including race.

In Stockholm, Sweden, more than 6,000 people participated in online protests held on Facebook live.

In The Hague, the Netherlands, thousands of people gathered on the lawn, kneeling and clenching their fists, crying for the human rights and justice of black people.

Protesters around the world voiced that the issue of racism was never confined to the United States, and that it is happening everywhere.

In social media, the'blackouttuesday' hashtag campaign is also taking place, and the heat of protests is getting hot regardless of offline or online.
