Students at an Arkansas high school pushed back against what they deemed as unfair treatment after a Black student and a white student were given an equal suspension for fighting, despite the Black student’s previous reports of being bullied.

The encounter at Fordyce High School, located in the city bearing the same name, was captured on video, and a recent report from Fox16 says the video ”blew up” on Thursday, Feb. 24. It is unclear on what date the fight occurred. The clip shows a Black male student being punched, kicked, pushed and placed in a choke hold by a white student in what appears to be a school locker room. The targeted student appears to fall unconscious, where he continues to be kicked in his back and head.

Both students were suspended for the same amount of time, according to the news station.
