Something monumental happened this afternoon. Dozens of congressional staffers walked out of their Capitol Hill offices Thursday to show solidarity with demonstrators across the country who have protested the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner.

At 3:30 p.m. ET, the congressional staffers stood on the steps of the U.S. Capitol with their hands raised in the “hands up, don’t shoot” gesture.

The walk-out was planned by the Congressional Black Associates, the Congressional Asian Pacific American Staff Association and the Congressional Hispanic Staff Association.
