George Floyd's death in U.S. police custody sparked an outpouring of solidarity from protesters around the globe. As protests continue across the United States, people around the world have begun marching in solidarity with American protesters who have taken to the streets following his death.

The death of Floyd, a 46-year-old unarmed black man who was killed in Minneapolis, Minnesota, after a white police officer pushed his knee into his neck for nearly 9 minutes, has garnered international attention, as have the sometimes-violent protests that have erupted in the U.S. 

Demonstrations in solidarity with Floyd protesters have popped up in cities like London, Berlin, Milan, Dublin and Toronto. 

Here is a look at how the world is reacting.

In the United Kingdom
Hundreds marched in London on Sunday to protest the death of Floyd, defying the United Kingdom's coronavirus lockdown restrictions that prohibit mass gatherings. 

Demonstrators gathered in Trafalgar Square in London, kneeling in unison at 1 p.m. local time to honor Floyd. Protesters, some in masks, held up signs with slogans such as "Justice for George Floyd" and chanted, "Black Lives Matter." Standing in solidarity with Floyd, some protesters also called out injustice and racism in the UK. 

Some protesters marched through London to the U.S. Embassy there. They chanted: "No justice, no peace" and "Enough is enough" as they marched toward the compound on the southern bank of the Thames River. Shouting "Say his name! George Floyd!" they held up "Black Lives Matter" signs outside the embassy building. 

Hundreds also marched in Manchester, UK, on Sunday – and more protests are expected in the UK this week. And a similar protest also took place in Cardiff. 

"When you take someone's life, the way that happened, then it does something to you wherever you are in the world – because it was totally wrong," one demonstrator, Trevor Joseph, said. 

In German

In Berlin, protesters gathered Sunday at the U.S. Embassy, demonstrating for a second day.

Hundreds of German demonstrators marched in solidarity with American protesters Saturday and Sunday, and chanted "Stop Killing Us," "Black Lives Matter" and "No Justice, No Peace." 

On a former section of the the Berlin Wall, in Mauerpark, a memorial popped up over the weekend depicting Floyd and "I can't breathe," some of his last words. 

Beyond protests that gathered thousands at the capital over the weekend, four soccer players in Germany's Bundesliga league addressed Floyd's killing during games. One player took a knee on the field. Another exposed a shirt underneath a jersey that read "Justice for George Floyd." 

In Canada

Toronto citizens gathered in protest against injustice toward black people globally and against the death of Regis Korchinski-Paquet, a 29-year-old black woman who lived in Toronto, and the circumstances surrounding her death. 
Korchinski-Paquet fell from her balcony while police officers were responding to a "domestic incident" in her home. 

Thousands of protesters took to the streets of downtown Toronto on Saturday, chanting "Justice for Regis" as they rallied in the aftermath of high-profile, police-involved deaths in both Canada and the United States. 

Demonstrations in support of Korchinski-Paquet merged with calls to end racism in Canada, the U.S., and around the world. Police are still investigating the death of Korchinski-Paquet, and protesters held up signs that read "Justice for Regis."

In Italy: 

On May 28, a group of Black Lives Matter demonstrators also gathered outside the U.S. consulate in Milan to protest Floyd's death. A graffiti mural in Milan read "I Can't Breathe," a reminder of Floyd's pleas to police. 

The protesters also performed a peaceful flashmob demonstration, in which they sat in front of the consulate with their hands at their throats, simulating suffocation. 

In addition to the protest, a mural was painted on the Ghisallo overpass in the northern region of Milan, commemorating Floyd and other African Americans who have died as a result of police brutality. Protesters also gathered outside the U.S. Embassy in Rome. 
 

In Ireland:

Two separate protests were held on Sunday, reported Irish national radio and television broadcaster RTE.

One was held outside the U.S. Embassy in Ballsbridge, an area in Dublin where many diplomatic missions are located, while another was carried out outside the official residence of the U.S. ambassador to Ireland inside Phoenix Park, the largest public park in the country, according to the report.

About 100 people took part in the protest outside the U.S. Embassy, said the report.

Photos carried by the report showed people of different races, ethnicities and backgrounds gathered at the main entrance of the U.S. Embassy, holding up placards and shouting slogans.

Slogans written on the placards include "I can't breathe," "Black Lives Matter" and "Justice for George Floyd," said the report.

The report didn't mention the number of people protesting outside the official residence of the U.S. ambassador to Ireland, nor did it mention the names of the organizers of the two protests. Both protests were peaceful, said the report.
