At the end of the march about 20 activists dressed in all black gathered at the rear of the Civic Center. The police closely followed the group and maintained blocks of officers nearby. Some youth break dancers decided to put on a show for one block of police. One dancer tried to introduce himself to the officers -they didn't accept his outstretched hand.
