Security at Underground rally

I haven't seen many police officers at the protest rally. And I don't mention that as a criticism or to suggest that there is no police presence.

Organizers have done an amazing job policing themselves. Yellow-vested volunteers are mingling in the crowd and keeping people on the sidewalks and not on Peachtree, which is still open.
