There are so many reasons why they are protesting (justly in my opinion) here.
Read the backstory. Read about the noose's placed in the tree and the white boys getting expelled by the principal but then the school board reverses that and only suspends them for 3 days. Or about the black boy that was beat up by some of the white boys and having nothing happen. Or about the white boy who pulled a gun on a black boy in a gas station, to which the black boys wrestled the bun away from the boy and called the police. The police charged the black boys with theft for taking the gun....... They charged these minors as adults on crimes way higher than they did with the other boys. Charge these boys with crimes yes but don't charge them with greater crimes because they are black while ignoring others because the perps were white. Type "jena 6" into wiki and read up on what happened.
