A protester seen holding the "Urumqi Middle Road" street sign that symbolizes the origin of the movement during the demonstration. At the University of Washington, more than two hundred people gathered to show solidarity with the "white paper" protest in China. The protesters called on the Chinese government to release all the protesters, free China, and ask President Xi to step down. However, protesters lit a candle to symbolize a tragedy under excessive control to show their support for the Urumqi fire tragedy. This tragedy claimed the lives of ten people and injured nine others.
