Jena Six

I've followed this case for a while now. I think it is incredible that people are rallying together for the sake of the youths of Jena, LA. Reading the coverage of the Dallas Morning News, I was happy to read that they were also white people involved. If you were watching the news they focused mostly on the black community. The story I read had the white person's point-of-view more than once and was very interesting. I also noticed how the figures of how many people actually did show-up was different from the police officials and the organizers. The police said there were about 20,000 people while the organizers said there were 50,000 people in attendance. It was a very interesting story.
