The scheduled protests and rallies come after the statue of a Confederate general was toppled and set on fire Friday night. Protesters pulled down the monument of Albert Pike outside the Metropolitan Police Department in Judiciary Square.
D.C. police extinguished the fire and protesters dispersed after a short time. The toppling of the statue happened at the end of a day of peaceful Juneteenth protests and rallies.
