The dance troupe Diversity's Sept. 5 performance involved the group's leader, popular British presenter Ashley Banjo, lying on the floor while a fellow dancer dressed in police gear handcuffed him. Other dancers gathered around them with smartphones, simulating filming the incident. The performance also included taking a knee and accompanying narration featuring the lines, “What we thought we knew, some clearly didn’t. Black Lives Matter.”
