From two-time National Book Award finalist Deborah Wiles comes a masterpiece exploration of one of the darkest moments in our history, when American troops killed four American students protesting the Vietnam War.

It didn't seem possible. Four college students shot dead May 4, 1970, by Ohio National Guardsmen during a protest against the Vietnam War. The shootings at Kent State University would shock the nation and spark a mass student strike across the country, the only one in U.S. history.

When 13 students were shot by Ohio National Guard Troops during a war demonstration on the Kent State University Campus on the first week of May 1970, four young lives were ended and a nation was stunned. More than 30 years later, the world at war is a different place. However, those 13 seconds in May 1970 still remain scorched into an Ohio hillside. Through archival tape and interviews, producer Mark Urycki tracks the events that led up to the shootings.

This work, from 1843, is an extended exhortation urging white ministers and slaveowners to attend to the spiritual needs of slaves and free blacks.

At midday on May 4, 1970, after three days of protests, several thousand students and the Ohio National Guard faced off at opposite ends of the grassy campus commons at Kent State University. At noon, the Guard moved out. Twenty-four minutes later, Guardsmen launched a 13-second, 67-shot barrage that left four students dead and nine wounded, one paralyzed for life.
