On Monday, May 4th, 1970, at an on-campus noontime rally, The Ohio National Guard, equipped with lethal M-1 military rifles, fired a 13-second fusillade into a group of unarmed students, killing 4 and wounding 9. The shooting, which shocked the nation, many consider a public perception turning point regarding the Vietnam War, and has become a symbol of the deep social and political divides of the era, which continue today. Tune in to commemorate the 49th anniversary of the Kent State massacre, featuring music reflecting the time, as well as contextual archived audio.
