PHOTOS: Juneteenth events around metro Atlanta
Roughly 500 people gathered inside Centennial Olympic Park for a daylong worship event and march amid Black Lives Matter protests calling for police reform and a measured end to police brutality against black people.
The event, March on Atlanta, coincided with Juneteenth, a holiday garnering wider national attention and a day marking the last slaves in Texas were freed. But for many attendees, the holiday also represents a day of protest.
