Hundreds Donate To Baton Rouge Fund To Help Bail Out Protesters

More than 100 protesters were arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Saturday night during a demonstration that broke out in the city’s streets. Now, one organization is working to help bail them out of jail. 

The Louisiana National Lawyers Guild launched a Crowdrise campaign early Sunday morning to raise money and help cover legal expenses of protesters behind bars. Many demonstrators took over the streets and marched on highways to demand justice in the deaths of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile.
