Following the Kent State massacre in May 1970, a Gallup poll showed that 58% of Americans thought the shootings were justified. The night *before* the killings, Ohio's GOP governor described the student protesters this way: "They're the worst type of people that we harbor in America."

Q: Can I bring you back to Greenland?

LUTNICK: No. It's not necessary. The Western Hemisphere is vital for the United States of America.

Illustration titled "Wild animals of North America," featuring two sections: the upper shows a mountain lion (cougar) lying stretched out on a rocky ledge with a canyon and sparse trees in the background, its gaze directed forward. The lower section depicts a jaguar in a dense jungle setting, aggressively pinning a black bird with its paw. The mountain lion appears relaxed and watchful, while the jaguar is active and engaged in a hunt. The artwork highlights distinct habitats and behaviors of the two large North American wild cats.

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals
