College students provide energy and excitement to Jena rally

So many of the people that I spoke with today were encouraged by the presence of young folks from all over the country.  College students walked the streets and chanted:

"No justice, no peace"  "What do we want, justice, when do we want it, now."  "Free Mychal Bell, Free Mychal Bell."

I saw representatives from the following schools:

Paul Quinn, Prairie View, Winston-Salem, Middle Tennessee State, Ft. Valley State, Tennessee State, Southern, Southern-New Orleans, North Carolina A&T, Tuskeegee, Fisk, Dillard, Tulane, Loyola, Grambling, Jackson ST, Alabama A&M, Jarvis Christian College, and Morehouse (and many more).

There were also high school students as well, all marching and speaking with authority.  We usually spend our time speaking against our youth and their culture.  Today, they gave us a glimmer of the future with such a positive showing.
