Black Lives Matter activists stage protests in London, Birmingham and Nottingham, stopping traffic from reaching Heathrow Airport by lying in the road.
The group was established in the US to protest about the killings of black people by the police and the demonstrations in English cities coincide with the fifth anniversary of the fatal shooting of Mark Duggan by officers in London.
Traffic bound for Heathrow, one of the world's busiest airports, was brought to a standstill after campaigners called for a "nationwide #shutdown" on social media, with several people arrested.
