Sharing this. Congrats to Mychal Bell and SU.
When there is media hysteria and a frenzy over another overblown incident of high caliber racialized treatment of more Black children in places like Lowdown Louisiana, the young people who get the media attention are expected to go on with their lives and do better than they were doing before.
Some gratefulness should be shown to the people who went out of their way to get you out of trouble, and just such a thing has been the case with one of the most infamous of the once-famous “Jena 6″ of Jena, Louisiana, Mychal Bell.
