Original Note:
This post omits that these payments are the result of the city choosing to settle in a class action lawsuit filed on behalf of over 1,300 protestors. The lawsuit centered on improper/excessive use of force in 2020 and omits those who committed arson and property destruction. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/new-york-pay-13-million-protesters-arrested-during-george-floyd-protests-2023-07-20/
