Answer:

Los disparos en la Kent State (Kent State shootings), también conocida como la Matanza del 4 de mayo (May 4 massacre) o la Masacre de la Kent State fue un suceso acontecido en la Universidad de Kent, Ohio, donde se sucedió un caótico panorama entre estudiantes y miembros de la Guardia Nacional, el lunes 4 de mayo de 1970 en el cual cuatro estudiantes fueron asesinados y nueve heridos (uno de ellos sufrió parálisis permanente) a manos de la Guardia Nacional, que disparó contra los estudiantes.

Explanation:

Richard Nixon fue elegido presidente de los Estados Unidos en 1968, prometiendo el fin de la guerra de Vietnam. En noviembre del 1969 se difundió la matanza de My Lai, rápidamente las imágenes dieron la vuelta al mundo generando indignación y aumentando la oposición a la guerra. Los meses siguientes se vio el primer sorteo para el reclutamiento desde la Segunda guerra mundial. La guerra parecía que iba a llegar a su fin alrededor de 1969 cuando se planteó invadir Camboya lo cual exacerbó el conflicto.

Algunos de los estudiantes tiroteados estaban protestando por la invasión estadounidense a Camboya (en el marco de la guerra de Vietnam y las protestas antibélicas en Estados Unidos), la cual el presidente Richard Nixon anuncio por televisión el 30 de abril. Algunos estudiantes que solo pasaban u observaban las protestas en la distancia también recibieron disparos cerca de la universidad.

Los trágicos sucesos recibieron respuestas por toda la nación: cientos de universidades, colegios e institutos promovieron una huelga estudiantil, cerrándose los centros educativos

Answer: On April 30, 1970, President Nixon authorized U.S. troops to invade Cambodia, a neutral nation located west of Vietnam. Even before Nixon’s formal announcement of the invasion, rumors of the U.S. military incursion into Cambodia resulted in protests at colleges and universities across the country.

Explanation:At Kent State, these protests actually began on May 1, the day after the invasion. That day, hundreds of students gathered on the Commons, a park-like space at the center of campus that had been the site of large demonstrations and other events in the past. Several speakers spoke out against the war in general, and President Nixon specifically.
