High school students across Australia have taken to the streets in a nationwide protest, sparked by a heated exchange between Senator Pauline Hanson and a high school student on live television. The student, who was part of a group visiting Parliament House, confronted Hanson over her comments on Indigenous Australians and immigration. The exchange quickly went viral, with many students feeling that Hanson's views were dismissive and hurtful. In response, students from over 100 schools have organized a walkout, calling for greater respect and understanding between different cultures and communities.
