Default Jena 6

guys, im not sure if you heard of the "jena 6" but it is pretty much racism at its finest. 6 black students are facing possible long term jail time on ridiculous charges. one of them, 16 years old, is already sentenced to 22 years in prison. he was tried by a white jury and a white judge.

please click on the link and view the video which explains the situation.

And it's amazing how the news hasn't picked it up at all and how most of white america hasn't heard of it... I didn't hear about it until Bill Maher brought it up with his guests Dr. Cornell West and Mos Def.

It definitely needs more attention.

Thats crazy. The sad thing is this is taught from childhood. My 5 year old daughter doesn't even know what color she is. All she says is I look like you daddy.
