A lone police officer was asked to kneel by protesters at an Oxford protest on Tuesday (June (9). The crowd chanted "kneel" and the officer heeded the request in a show of solidarity. The demonstrators were calling for the removal of a statue of imperialist Cecil Rhodes above Oriel College in Oxford.
A group of councillors earlier backed the campaign to remove it and called on Oxford University to "decolonise." Campaigners say Rhodes, a 19th Century businessman and politician, represented white supremacy.
