Around 6 p.m., demonstrators could be seen showing up with signs. Organizers told News4Jax they have been concerned that the beaches are predominantly white and haven’t been participating in the protests, and that’s why they met at the Seawalk Pavilion Thursday night. I don’t see anything going on, so I initiated this movement to show our support out here,” said organizer Taryn Montgomery, with Beaches For Change. And so I think that by us planning, we’re not here to speak, especially considering that we’re white.
