Black is a symbol of mourning and/or STRENGTH. It was a popular color chosen to be worn by supporters of Jena 6.
Another prominent color seen around that Thursday was green, which represents GROWTH.
Some people chose to wear a combination of the two colors giving an eye-catching look. Although wearing all black may come off a little morbid, those who chose to wear it (including myself)definitely stood out. Not everyone is and was aware of the Jena 6 incident but to witness a sea of black garments walking around on campuses, rallies, workfore etc. not only seemed pecuilar, it succeeded in bringing attention to the cause.
