march for racial justice, demanding that an unfairly jailed Black man be freed.
They overpower the police attempting to control the crowd. They use a beam from
a nearby construction site to ram and destroy the door, entering the jail. They
liberate the Black man and hide him from the law.</span><br class=""><div><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class=""><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class=""><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;" class="">Violence.

crowd. Destruction. Lawlessness. How do you feel about this? Is it justified?
Or do you think protesting is fine but the violence is not?</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;" class="">This is the true story
of the founding of the Republican Party in 1854. Joshua Glover escaped slavery
in Missouri by coming to Wisconsin, a free state, where he lived for two years.
Fugitive Slave Act catchers beat and arrested him, intending to send him back
to his enslavers. Abolitionist Sherman Booth organized the protest and stormed
the jail.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: rgb(5, 5, 5); font-size: 10pt; background-color: white;" class="">Get
