New York City will name a street 'Black Lives Matter' in each burough

New York City will name a street at a "crucial" location in each borough for "Black Lives Matter," Mayor Bill de Blasio said Tuesday.

"What will be clear — the street name and on the streets of our city — is that message that now this city must fully, fully deeply feel and this nation must as well, that Black Lives Matter," de Blasio said.

One of the locations will be near City Hall, and the other locations will be decided with participants, activists and city leaders, de Blasio said.

"Black Lives Matter" will also be painted on the streets.
