Just your friendly reminder that over half of the country blamed the students for the Kent State massacre.
What percentage of people today do you think even know what the Kent state massacre was?
People seem so fucking incurious it's aggravating.
This is the first time iv ever heard of this
The first “Super Group” Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; released a song named Ohio that got big time air play at the time and still does today, regarding the Kent shooting.

It was wild being from that area and talking to people who protested that day and hearing their stories
Yeah I grew up a couple states over and my Dad was protesting at a similar sized college back then.
He got tear gassed and beat up too, and he always said if I was in a protest to bring a video camera and pretend to be Press.
But now that they’re shooting obvious journalists, I don’t think that would work.
