Angebote / Angebote:
On May 4, 1970, the Ohio National Guard opened fire on Kent State University students protesting the U.S. invasion of Cambodia. Four students were killed and nine more wounded. This book was written in memory of, and in tribute to, the four slain students.Shockingly, an arm of the U.S. military had shot and killed young Americans on a college campus. The shooting brought into high relief the massive rifts the Vietnam war was causing in the country.This book begins when I'm told about the shooting in my senior year of high school. Committed to attending Kent State, I invite the reader to come along with me and experience those four turbulent years. While the integrity of the shooting aftermath constitutes the focus of the book, I share parallel stories regarding the Vietnam war, impeachment of the President, Kent State's only football championship and music of the time.The book was written to the best of my knowledge and research to chronicle how the events of four years influenced my life, my generation, and America.Please RememberThe 50th Memorial Anniversary of the Kent State TragedyMay 4, 2020
