On January 20th, over 300 students walked out of Carmel High school to participate in the “Free America” protest. This nationwide walkout marks one year since president Donald Trump’s inauguration for his second term, and was started by the Women’s March Organization. The Carmel branch was organized by the Carmel Young Progressives club.
WHJE’s MJ Martell and Sam Falkenstein attended as student journalists. This is their coverage of the protest, including interviews with students, teachers, and the Carmel Clay Schools superintendent Dr. Oestreich.
