Hundreds of people joined together in support of the Black Lives Matter movement following the death of George Floyd in the US.
The demonstration took place outside Cardiff Castle and was organised following the death of Mr Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota, on 25 May while in police custody.
There has been civil unrest across the USA sparked by the 46-year-old’s death, which has sparked worldwide protests including those in UK cities.
Ex-policeman Derek Chauvin, 44, was sacked and has since been charged with murdering Mr Floyd.
George Floyd, died in police custody after being arrested outside a shop in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Footage of the arrest shows a white police officer, Derek Chauvin, kneeling on George Floyd’s neck while he was pinned to the floor.
