Hundreds of people gathered in downtown Chicago on Monday night demanding justice for Tyre Nichols, who was beaten to death by police officers in Memphis, Tennessee, and calling for swift police reforms across the country.

“Indict, convict, send those killer cops to jail. The whole damn system is guilty as hell,” the crowd chanted as they huddled against the frigid air at Federal Plaza, 230 S. Dearborn. Protesters expressed frustration at having to once again demonstrate against what they said was yet another killing of a Black man at the hands of law enforcement officers.
