Watch: ‘Remarkable, Beautiful’ Moment Protesters Sang ‘Lean On Me’ Near The White House

In a historic moment described on Twitter as “surreal” and “remarkable,” thousands of protesters on Wednesday joined together, holding their cellphones in the air ― with the flashlights illuminated — to sing the late Bill Withers’ hit “Lean on Me”

Withers’ song appears to be becoming something of an anthem at anti-racism protests that have spread across the country following the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis last week.

Multiple videos of the heartwarming scene are now going viral on Twitter:
