Arrested for ridicule on account of creed, religion, color, denomination, nationality or race? A clear violation of freedom of speech.
FAIRFIELD, Conn. (AP) — More than 500 students in Connecticut walked out of school Monday to protest against racism after a classmate was arrested and charged for allegedly posting a racist slur on Snapchat with the photo of a Black student.
The students from two high schools in Fairfield, Connecticut, rallied for about three hours, hearing speeches and sharing their own experiences, the Connecticut Post reported.
The arrest of the student last week on a state hate crime charge of ridicule on account of creed, religion, color, denomination, nationality or race was unusual and raises questions about the free speech rights of students.
