US presidential candidate Bernie Sanders kicked off stage

Seattle: US Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders on Sunday was kicked off the stage by ‘Black Lives Matter’ protesters .

The Independent reported that just as Senator Bernie Sanders began to address an audience of thousands in Seattle, a group of activists stormed the stage and grabbed the microphone. The protesters, who identified with the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement that was born of a series of high-profile killings of black men by US police officers last year, prevented Sanders from delivering a speech. Sanders, who is running against Hillary Clinton to become the Democratic’s presidential candidate, could not convince the protesters to surrender the stage.
