“Ohio”, by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, was released from their album, “So Far”, in 1970. It was written by Neil Young, and is on the Atlantic label.
This song came out just days after the shootings at Kent State. It is a counterculture protest anthem, in reaction to the horror of that day (May 4, 1970)

Haha! Push it!!! Great selections!
Thanks, Laura! Good prompts for songs today.

Good picks, especially the third!!
Thanks, John!
It’s a good song, but sad that there had to be a need for a song like that.
Great selections. I lived near Kent State when the shootings took place. It was so surreal. Growing up during that time was tough enough. Members of my graduating class were being drafted to serve in Vietnam. Then to have this happen on your doorstep was eye opening.
Thanks, Maggie!
It must have been even more devastating to live close by when this happened. My husband was already in Vietnam when all this was going on, too.
