? Protesters rallied at the Bernice Young Elementary school Monday after a video surfaced on YouTube of second-graders singing a song about President Barack Obama.
Many conservative groups, including anti-tax groups, voiced concerns after the video was posted, saying the school is trying to brainwash students into idolizing Obama. Counter-protesters say the situation is racially motivated and disruptive to students.
Officials say the students sang the song back in February during a Black History Month event.
The protesters were not allowed on school property. The superintendent increased security before the demonstration.
