Kids are a lot smarter and more aware of things that are going on around them than we give them credit for. Minority kids become aware a lot sooner because just because you are a kid, doesn’t mean you don’t have to deal with racial injustice.
I had a gun pushed into the back of my head by a cop when I was 12 because while I was waiting at a bus stop because he said I looked like a drug dealer.
I repeat I was 12.
So, this isn’t surprising to me at all.

Hopefully, the school will respect their decision and for all we know one of these kids might end up being the President one day.
You never know what brain you are sparking when you speak up for injustices.
