Letter to the Editors: Where Were You Monday at Noon?
To the Editors:
I was at the Jena Six protest this Monday at noon on Wilder Bowl. When I first heard about the protest, I hoped that I would see the whole school out in force. However, I was disappointed to find that the number of people protesting paled in comparison to the number of people at TGIF on a rainy day.
Innocent kids are getting put in jail in Louisiana. Can�t we find it in ourselves to stand in Wilder Bowl for 20 minutes between classes? It wasn�t too hot. It wasn�t too cold. In fact, the weather was just right for the occasion.
Where was everybody?
Where were you?... See you soon? I hope.
