I can't stand the white savior approach that some of these people are taking. Offer support, walk with those affected. But most importantly - shut up and listen. The fact is that the looting can distract from the valid message being put forth. I makes it worse as it ultimately gives ignorant people a feeling of correctness in stating that those populations most impacted by police brutality and by the criminal justice industry did something to bring it on themselves.
