#Ohio #CSNY #protest #protestsong

In this edition of #thedailydoug, I'm diving into the classic protest song Ohio by Neil Young and performed by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. It's been 54 years since the campus shooting at Kent State as National Guard members shot student protestors. Neil Young wrote this song in solidarity with the students, and the song has stayed relevant and popular ever since. I'm also listening to a 2020 cover of this song by students at Kent State University, who were (at the time) commemorating the 50th anniversary of the massacre. Protests and social unrest are continuing today, and I close with thoughts on these protests and the music that accompanies these rallies and protests. I hope you enjoy.
