Minnesota students walkout of classrooms to protest racial injustice They’re killing us, they’re killing the young people, they’re killing the future of this country.
Minnesota walked out of class on Monday in a state-wide protest against racial injustice.
The event was organized by Minnesota Teen Activists, and students from at least 118 high schools reportedly participated in the walkout. According to the
New York Times, the students demanded school leaders end their “silence over racial injustice.”
The coordinated action was in response to the police killings of
George Floyd and
Daunte Wright, a 20-year old Black man who was fatally shot last week in Brooklyn Center, Minn.
