Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review Jena 6 Conference Invitation
On December 4, 2006, at a segregated schoolyard in Jena, LA, 3 nooses hung ominously from a "whites only" tree, sending a racially charged message to black students and the community. The ensuing tensions exploded in a fight that resulted in a range of criminal charges for 6 black male students, including attempted murder. The prosecution of the "Jena 6" has raised concerns about the continuing racial disparities pervading the American criminal justice system.
