The Young Activists Coalition has been making similar demands for nearly a year, citing disproportionate discipline used against Black students.
Recent data from the ACLU of Ohio show Black students in CPS are five times more likely to face discipline than white students.
While Black students are 63% of the student population, they make up 93% of out-of-school suspensions, 89% of police referrals, 85% of in-school suspensions, and 78% of expulsions.
The protest was planned after the group says it was not allowed to present data about SROs at Monday s Health and Safety Committee meeting. Young Activists Coalition President Yousuf Munir says this happened despite members of the Health and Safety Committee encouraging the group to speak.
