There is more testimony being taken tomorrow and the testimonies already recorded are online. This session began today in San Francisco and will continue there tomorrow.
The photo is Memorial to Jeffrey Miller on Ohio State Campus. Taken from approximately the same perspective as John Filo's famous photograph.
The recording of testimony will resume in October for two days in New York City.
This is an important and effective method of recording a moment in time where unrest of students was so overstated by the Washington administration that it created an atmosphere that demonized them unleasing weapons against unarmed citizens. THAT is not a minor isssue.
Now, forty years later, it is safe to record the moment from memories of those present on 'the day four students were killed' for political power. There is absolutely no other reason why those students were killed that day. They were simply students protesting the harnessing of their generation to die in a war that was killing millions of Vietnamese. They were not armed. It was the end of the semester and everyone was going home. No one was occupying buildings and there was no interruption of classes. It was Final Exams and the exams were nearly finished. It was the last act of frustration with war before leaving campus for the summer and they never breathed after that moment.
