A 16-year-old student was among six people removed from a school board meeting in North Carolina, the latest episode in a series of protests over a plan that opponents feel would resegregate the local system.

Raleigh police say the six were arrested after they were removed from the Wake County school board meeting Tuesday afternoon and charged with second-degree trespassing.

Multiple media outlets reported that 16-year-old Seth Keel refused to leave the podium after making a short speech criticizing the board’s move away from the plan based on diversity and toward neighborhood schools.
