March 3: Mass arrests at White House Keystone XL protest

Hundreds arrested at White House Keystone protest 


More than 300 anti-Keystone XL protesters were arrested Sunday afternoon outside the White House in the latest push by environmentalists to convince the Obama administration to reject the controversial Canadian oil pipeline. 

Students from 80 colleges participated in Sunday’s event, and another protest will be held on Monday in San Francisco, said Aly Johnson-Kurts, a freshman at Smith College and one of the organizers of the event.
