This week Montana tells us about the Kent State Massacre. A massacre that occurred at Kent State College in response to student protests. With rising protests and college encampments around the world, We felt it was important to look back on how violent responses to protestors can quickly turn deadly. This is a cautionary reminder to stay safe while you practice your first amendment right to peacefully protest and a rebuke to the violent response so often seen doled out by police and military groups.
