Photograph of the Kent State Shootings (May 1970)
The news that Richard Nixon was sending troops to Cambodia caused a chain of protests in the U.S. colleges. At Kent State the protest seemed more violent, some students even throwing rocks. In consequence, The Ohio National Guard was called to calm things down, but the events got out of hand and they started shooting. Some of the victims were simply walking to school. The photo shows 14-year-old Mary Ann Vecchio kneeling over the body of Jeffrey Miller who had been shot by the Ohio National Guard moments earlier.  ·

Re: Photograph of the Kent State Shootings (May 1970)
Tiananmen Square is Chinese for Kent State University. The survivors spent decades trying to sue the National Guard, for accountability, and were stone walled at every step. |
