KZMU News: Monday June 1, 2020

Today on the news, the sounds of protest in Utah and the West as marchers joined thousands across the nation to demonstrate against police brutality and systemic racism. We hear reports from Salt Lake City organizers Utah Against Police Brutality, reactions from Salt Lake’s Chief of Police and Mayor, and get a sense of smaller demonstrations in our region.
