While the powers that be would rather have you all worked up about about Michael Vick, we are going to rally for the Jena 6!
Sign the petition – Mychal Bell’s sentancing is September 20th. Trying to roll? Get at me in the comments…
The struggle to free the Jena 6 must be spread far and wide. And a lot more people need to learn from the Black students at Jena High School who stood beneath the ‘whites only’ tree and through their defiant action, said ‘NO MORE.
We have been covering this story all summer. If you STILL don’t know what’s up – peep the Color of Change summary

He needs to know that folks are thinking about him and working for his freedom. He’s just a kid after all, even if he was tried as an adult.
Please send info on how to attend this rally on September 20th, we are trying to help and support. Please respond soon.
