A digital, black-and-white image of Kendrick Sampson speaking at a Black Lives Matter - Los Angeles protest against District Attorney Jackie Lacey in Downtown Los Angeles, California. The image was taken by Tommy Oliver during the protests that followed the death of George Floyd. Sampson, at the center of the image, is speaking into a microphone in his proper left hand and is smiling as he makes his address. He is wearing a black knit beanie and a black cut-off, sleeveless T-shirt with the logo [BLD / PWR] printed in white text inside a white, outlined rectangle printed over his chest. He also has a black face mask with white piping around the edges pulled down and resting on the top of his collarbone. Behind him, is a large white sign with partially visible text that reads [JACKIE LA[CEY?] MUST [GO?]!]].
