Protesters leaving a Black Lives Matter conference used the rapper's latest single as a rallying cry for solidarity

FOX News contributor Geraldo Rivera recently argued that Kendrick Lamar has “done more damage to young African-Americans than racism.” Students at Cleveland State University beg to differ.

A Black Lives Matter conference at the university this weekend turned contentious after police officers detained a 14-year-old boy for alleged public intoxication. However, witnesses allege officers slammed the teen to the ground in an act of police brutality. When a crowd then formed to block the police cruiser’s path, officers responded by using pepper spray on several people.

During the unrest, the crowd maintained their solidarity by locking arms and chanting in unison the chorus to Kendrick’s “Alright”. Below, watch video of the stirring moment.
