What’s past is prologue. Let the history of May 4, 1970, be heard this week. Episode 1 of the new “Legacy May 4” podcast visits the site of the tragedy, then looks at how Kent State moved from the optimism and opportunity of 1960s higher education to an unintended turning point for the nation. Witness and activist Chic Canfora shares perspectives as a young woman of the 1960s, compared with the experiences of two students of the 21st century.
