[Tens of] Thousands of Protesters Gather for the Jena 6
BBC Coverage of the Sept. 20th Protest for the Jena 6
I'm really blown away by response to the situation of the Jena 6 and thought I'd pull together some mainstream sources to get a sense of the visibility of today's protest. I haven't seen official numbers but reports range from thousands to tens of thousands. Lots of protests happened in other places too but the following news items focus on Jena, Louisiana.
