The rallies, dominated by a heavy police presence, were mostly peaceful.
Protesters marched on the streets or gathered at public parks carrying posters that said"No Justice, No Peace" and"Sorry For The Inconvenience, We Are Trying To Change The World."
"I don't want to be having to be 80 years old and pushing for this kind of change for my children and my children's children." Perth saw the largest gathering of all major Australian cities on Saturday, despite pleas from the premier of Western Australia state, Mark McGowan, to cancel the event until the coronavirus pandemic was over.
WA Health Minister Roger Cook this week advised large gatherings were not advisable, although his wife, an indigenous woman, said she would join the rally.
