For the Manns, staying at home and protesting through social media is no longer enough. Instead, they opted to join hundreds of others in the streets in protest of racial injustice and police brutality in America.

In an emotional video, the Manns announced that they were trying to do their part in making a difference and letting their voices be heard. In the video, an emotional Tamela is seen wiping her tears as she holds on to a sign that says "We Want Justice."

Although there have been news reports of chaotic protests and demonstrations happening around America, there have also been many heartwarming incidents that do not get as much publicity. In Miami, a longtime activist named Renita Holmes was approached by a police captain and the pair exchanged kind words and hugs.

Two weeks since protests began, hundreds of thousands await action from various sectors to address issues on racial injustice and police brutality.
