Kent State, May 4, 1970: America Kills Its Children *The ads are not because of me. They are because I used a copyrighted song* Forty years ago this week, students came out on the Kent State campus and scores of others to protest the bombing of Cambodia-- a decision of President Nixon's that appeared to expand the Vietnam War. The units that responded were ill-trained and came right from riot duty elsewhere; they hadn't had much sleep. The first day, there was some brutality; the Guard bayonetted two men, one a disabled veteran, who had cursed or yelled at them from cars. The following day, May 4th, the Guard, commanded with an amazing lack of military judgment, marched down a hill, to a field in the middle of angry demonstrators, then back up again. Seconds before they would have passed around the corner of a large building, and out of sight of the crowd, many of the Guardsmen wheeled and fired directly into the students, hitting thirteen, killing four of them, pulling the trigger over and over, for thirteen seconds. (Count out loud--one Mississippi, two Mississippi, to see how long this is.) Guardsmen--none of whom were later punished, civilly, administratively, or criminally--admitted firing at specific unarmed targets; one man shot a demonstrator who was giving him the finger. The closest student shot was fully sixty feet away; all but one were more than 100 feet away; all but two were more than 200 feet away. One of the dead was 255 feet away; the rest were 300 to 400 feet away. The most distant student shot was more than 700 feet from the Guardsmen. Some rocks had been thrown, and some tear gas canisters fired by the Guard had been hurled back, but (though some of the Guardsmen certainly must know the truth) no-one has ever been able to establish why the Guard fired when they were seconds away from safety around the corner of the building. None had been injured worse than a minor bruise, no demonstrators were armed, there was simply nothing threatening them that justified an armed and murderous response. In addition to the demonstrators, none of whom was closer than sixty feet, the campus was full of onlookers and students on their way to class; two of the four dead fell in this category. Most Guardsmen later testified that they turned and fired because everyone else was. There was an attempt to blame a mysterious sniper, of whom no trace was ever found; there was no evidence, on the ground, on still photographs or a film, of a shot fired by anyone but the Guardsmen. One officer is seen in many of the photographs, out in front, pointing a pistol; one possibility is that he fired first, causing the others, ahead of him, to turn and fire. Or (as some witnesses testified) he or another officer may have given an order to fire. It is indisputable that the Guardsmen were not in any immediate physical danger when they fired; the crowd was not pursuing them; they were seconds away from being out of sight of the demonstration. One rumor has it that the Guardsmen were told the same night that they would never be prosecuted by the state of Ohio. And they never were. The Nixon administration stalled for years, announcing "investigations" that led nowhere; White House tapes subsequently released show that Nixon thought demonstrators were bums, asked the Secret Service to go beat them up, and apparently felt that the Kent State victims had it coming. As did most of the country; William Gordon calls the killings "the most popular murders ever committed in the United States." President Nixon created a public atmosphere in which students who opposed the war were fair game for those who supported the government. The message couldn't have been clearer: they had it coming. - Jonathan Wallace, The Ethical Spectacle, May 1995 Music - Sigur Ros - Glosoli

Sifting through videos for the upcoming 56th anniversary of the May 4, 1970 #KentState massacre, I came across this heartfelt and moving masterpiece created by Walter Wynn.

Warner Bros. Shareholders: You’re Being Lied To (vote is Thursday) Six days before the largest media merger in American history goes to a shareholder vote, Warner Bros. Discovery filed a fourteen-page correction to the document its shareholders are being asked to vote on. The correction only exists because of one retail shareholder on Staten Island sued. Almost no one is covering it. This is the story of what the Ellisons left out, and why WBD is now admitting, in writing, that they knew about it all along. This video covers: -The fourteen-page correction WBD was forced to file on April 17 -Donna Nicosia, the one shareholder who read the proxy and sued -Why Paramount pulled ads from The Ankler over a bag of pins -Evercore's $35 to $40 million in undisclosed Ellison-world fees, and what Ampere actually is -Allen & Company, The Free Press, and a 180-day lockup that ends the same month as the vote -Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar putting up $24 billion in non-voting stock designed to skip CFIUS -David Zaslav's $887 million golden parachute, and what that vote is really asking you Read the full article thedreydossier.substack.com Follow me on TikTok / Instagram: @thedreydossier Independent journalism only exists if people can actually see it, so if this connected some dots, share it with a Warner Bros. Discovery shareholder, a journalist who should be covering this, or anyone who needs to see what the documents actually say before Thursday. Thanks for being here.

All Along The Watchtower (Bob Dylan) feat. Warren Haynes | Playing For Change 🎶🌍 Order our latest album Songs For Humanity now! https://shop.playingforchange.com/collections/songs-for-humanity 🎧✨ I remember having a daydream about the opening acoustic guitar part of “All Along The Watchtower” ending with a Native American scream and a big native drum on the downbeat. That was the spark to assemble one of our biggest and deepest Songs Around The World. From Beirut to New Orleans to the Lakota Nation, musicians play and sing like a musical army determined to stop suffering and greed all over the world. As a society, we need to get back to our roots and connect deeper with our ancestors and native people in general so we can find the wisdom we need to move forward as a human race.

Having lived through the #Nixon years, we know the May 1970 Kent State and Jackson State massacres targeting student protesters were among his worst crimes against U.S. citizens, yet not mentioned here, or in any of these types of articles. Almost as if Nixon never did it. bit.ly/4tGly6b ☮️🌺

Preparing and deploying 5,000 U.S. troops on the ground in Iran yet no official announcement nor common sense applied. A war that may signal WWIII with no mandate, no imminent threat, no valid reason for this war and most importantly, fading public support.

Confrontation at Kent State and the film, Allison Watch at Substack: https://bit.ly/4c5O5MY Confrontation at Kent State Bonus Footage: Watch the film "Allison" at the end Overview On Monday afternoon, May 4, 1970, four students and protesters on Kent State University’s campus were shot to death and nine others were seriously wounded by members of the Ohio National Guard. Immediately following the tragedy, members of the faculty and student body of Kent State put together a motion picture which documents this confrontation. The filmmakers interviewed the people in the town of Kent, students, and faculty of the university, and a member of the National Guard . . . And they asked all these people the question “Do you think that the shooting of the students at Kent was justified?” The answers they received form the content of the film . . . and these answers raise disturbing questions about the nature of our society. Filmed and released in 1970. Richard Myers, Director https://bit.ly/4kInMhT About “Confrontation at Kent State” Just days after the May 4, 1970 Kent State massacre, Professor Richard Myers was teaching Filmmaking I at Kent State University. Myers organized the film project and directed “Confrontation at Kent State” to explore views of what happened on May 4, 1970 and local responses to the massacre. Filmed in seven days with students working cameras and microphones, they asked a simple question to passersby in downtown Kent, Ohio: “Do you think that the shooting of students at Kent was justified?” Confrontation at Kent State was created by eight individuals. At the time the film was made their positions were as follows: Richard Myers, faculty member (Kent State University Art department); Patricia Myers, local real estate agent; Carla Ruff, graduate student (KSU English department); Jake Leed, faculty member (KSU English department); Mary Leed, student (University of Akron, Law); Robert Ohlrich, resident of Kent (KSU graduate); Michael Tarr, student (KSU); and James M. Someroski, faculty member (KSU Art department). About Richard Myers: Richard Myers is an experimental filmmaker based in Kent, Ohio. He holds both a Bachelor of Fine Arts, and a Master of Arts degree from Kent State University (1959 and 1961, respectively). Myers began making films in the early 1960s. Most of his films are based on dreams and autobiographical information. He is especially known for his 1970 film Confrontation at Kent State, which was filmed during the week following the May 4, 1970 Kent State Shootings. Myers is an Emeritus Professor of Kent State University’s School of Art, where he taught film production classes from 1964 to 1991. About “Allison” Allison is composed of Allison Krause footage from her time at Kent State collected by Richard Myers. Arthur S. Krause, father of Allison, narrates reading his October 1970 letter to President Richard Nixon and the poem “Song of Allison” written by Peter Davies.
