It didnt 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. A photojournalism students photograph of a teen girl crying in anguish over a victims dead body would win the Pulitzer Prize and become a symbol of the antiwar movement.

Critical Thinking Using the Common Core

John Filo said a photographer tries to capture whats important in the space in front of him. What are the important points made in his photo of Mary Ann Vecchio kneeling next to Jeffrey Millers body? (Integration of Knowledge and Ideas)

What statements made after the May 4 shootings showed that some Americans supported the National Guard and opposed the protesters at Kent State? (Key Ideas and Details)

The Scranton Report found that the use of violence against the protesters was unnecessary and inexcusable. How does that differ from what the special grand jury reported in October 1969? (Craft and Structure)
