TEXT: A police officer shines a flashlight on protesters as they exit the subway on January 31, 2020. The protest was in response to increased police presence in New York City subways. Police claim that they need to step up their fare evasion enforcement, and that fare evaders cost the transit agency $240 million a year. Activists, however, see the additional police presence as a war on poor people. (Photo by Aidan Loughran/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
