Back in the United States, a Black Lives Matter activist and citizen journalist whose protest photo went viral has been elected to serve on the City Council of Charlotte, North Carolina. The photo of Braxton Winston from last year shows him raising a fist in front of a line of riot police as he joined protests against the killing of Keith Lamont Scott, an African-American father who was shot by a Charlotte police officer who was later acquitted over the killing. Winston has promised to focus on economic development and police accountability.
