Will Bigham in the Daily Bulletin today reports on Thursday's protests at the Claremont Colleges in support of the Jena, La., protests, where approximately 3,000 people took to the streets over racial tensions there.
The Bulletin article sketched out the events in Jena that have stirred up the community and the country. Here's an NPR story that fleshes out the events in more detail.
The Bulletin's website also offers a photo gallery of the Claremont protest as well as a video.
A behind-the-scenes look at the news of Claremont, CA. We focus on city hall, city staff, and the so-called "Claremont 400" or "Preserve Claremonters" or "Claremonsters", those goofy, too-serious, power types that run most of the town's service organizations, charities, and city commissions. Claremont is indeed a unique place, and we'll try to bring a flavor of that absurd "uniqueness" to the outside world, as well as spotlighting some of the finer things about our city and region.
