WASHINGTON Thousands of protesters have marched to the Capitol, where relatives of several black men who died in incidents with white police officers are addressing the crowd.

Civil rights organizations held the Saturday march and rally to bring attention to such deaths and call for legislative action.

Among the speakers were civil rights leader The Rev. Al Sharpton; the widow of Eric Garner, killed by an officer in New York; the parents of Michael Brown, an 18-year-old killed in Ferguson, Missouri; and the mother of 12-year-old Tamir Rice, a 12-year-old killed in Ohio as he played with a pellet gun in a park.

Many asked the crowd to chant, I cant breathe. Garner had gasped those words before his death while being arrested for allegedly selling loose, untaxed cigarettes.

Protestors signs displayed that sentence as well as Black Lives Matter and Who do you protect? Who do you serve?

Saturday brought out thousands of protesters to the National Mall in Washington,D.C. for the "Justice for All" march.

The march, lead by Reverend Al Sharpton and the National Action Network,also included the families of Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, Tamir Rice and Eric Garner.

According to its website, the National Action Network aims "to promote a modern civil rights agenda that includes the fight for one standard of justice, decency and equal opportunities forall people regardless of race, religion, nationality or gender"

But as a BBC reporter notes, protesters were pushing a lot of messages atSaturday's peaceful march so many that it was difficult to hone in on the major issues.

"You talk to some protestors say they want police to wear body cameras. ... You talk to other people and theysay they want people racism to end. ... And then you talk to other people who say it's really difficult to measure how to get justice."

As mentioned,Al Sharpton lead the march from downtown Washington to the U.S. Capitol.

He'sa voice and face we've continuously seen as this new wave of a modern-daycivil rights movement has gained stem.

"I saw a black man put his hand on the Bible and become president. But I've also been inspired today when I see young white kids holding up signs,"said Sharpton via Sky News.

But Sharpton's focus and tactics are not without critics, some of whom think the reverend is not the right man to lead these protests.
