Hundreds of Harvard affiliates and Cambridge Ringe and Latin School students marched Monday in protest of the recent grand jury decision not indict a white police offer who shot and killed a black teenager in Ferguson, Mo., this summer.

Students from a number of graduate schools—including the Graduate School of Education, the Kennedy School of Government, and the Divinity School— first joined Law School students shortly after noon outside of Wasserstein Hall to rally together in protest and hear from student and faculty speakers, many of whom had visited Ferguson recently.
