- Thomas M. Grace, survivor of the shootings at Kent State University and author of "Kent State: Death and Dissent in the Long Sixties", delivers a presentation entitled, "Life and Death at Kent State: 1960s Student Dissent as a Working Class Movement." Grace discusses the history of the shootings at Kent State University and explains the social movement that arose at the university during the late 1960's and early 1970's. He talks about the protests in opposition to the Vietnam War that occurred at Kent State in 1970, the shots fired by Ohio National Guard troops and the economic climate in the U.S. which he says helped to fuel an "anti-war mentality" among college students during that time. Grace answers questions from the audience. He is introduced by Thomas Dietz, professor of Sociology and Environmental Science and Policy at Michigan State University. Part of the "Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives" Brown Bag series sponsored by the MSU Department of Sociology, the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations and the MSU Museum. Held in the MSU Museum auditorium.
