High school students across the country participated in peaceful protests on Monday in order to express their outrage over the case. At 12:01, students walked out of class and marched towards capitals in a show of solidarity. Students from Boston, Brookline, New York City, Missouri, Minnesota and a host of other locations all walked out of class at the same time.
Students chanted, held up homemade signs, and gave speeches about inequality and racism. Whites and Blacks joined in the protests as the nation's children illustrate that beyond all the hate, violence, and bigotry which exists in the world, there are still those who seek to make the work a better place through understanding, love, and brotherhood.
