"The death of ‪#‎EricGarner‬ is emblematic of the racial injustice that continues in Portland. The same social illness that's infecting America.

We know the laws are wrong. Sometimes we get new policies. Sometimes we get rid of the old ones.

But the outcomes are the same. Sometimes they're worse. We've got the documentation to prove it.

Still, our outrage and frustration is often ridiculed and brushed aside. Our humanity is ignored.

No matter how bad we suffer. No matter what we say.

'I can't breathe. I can't breathe.'"

New York City Police arrested 223 people in overnight protests, the second consecutive night of demonstrations in opposition to a grand jury’s decision not to indict officers in the choke hold death of Staten Island man Eric Garner.

Many of the arrests involved charges for disorderly conduct or refusal to clear the streets, authorities told ABC News.

The protesters gathered in downtown Manhattan's Foley Square and chanted "I can't breathe" and "No justice, no peace" before marching across the Brooklyn Bridge, carrying replicas of coffins. Another group started in Harlem. The marchers also disrupeted traffic near the Holland Tunnel, the Manhattan Bridge and on the West Side Highway.
