- All right, everybody.

So we're locked inside

of City Hall right now.

They locked the bathrooms.

They've refused to let us

off the balcony

unless we're leaving

the building.

The commissioner

still has not returned.

We just wanted engagement

from Kevin Davis.

It wasn't about

blocking Kevin Davis.

It's mostly about, like,

having a conversation

so that we know what side

Kevin Davis is actually on.

I'm challenging everybody

right now

to use the power

of social media

to demand that

the commissioner comes.

- So thumbs for

are we committed

to staying here?

Yes, maybe, no.

- I want to stay.

- Thumb, thumbs?

- Yes, yes.

- To go home?

- This has just been

the unanimous decision

that we're not leaving

until Kevin Davis

and Mayor

Stephanie Rawlings-Blake

are with us.

- Okay.

- Protestors are still

inside City Hall,

refusing to leave.

Now, we've confirmed

that Kevin Davis

is not inside with them.

- You will have to

leave the building.

I don't know. I'm trying...

- Is this a warning

before our arrest?

- To see if we... well...

- Excuse me.

Good evening.

Can I have everybody's

attention?

- Let her finish talking,

'cause that was

very disrespectful

to your colleague.

- Please. I am lawfully

ordering all of you

who are assembled here

inside of City Hall

to leave the building

immediately

and peacefully disperse.

- Kwame, shh.

- You shall leave immediately

or be subject to arrest.

- It is our duty

to fight for our freedom.

but our chains!
