Death on a Starry Night at Jackson State College.

Healy, Patrick

Chronicle of Higher Education, v41 n34 pA14-15 May 5 1995

At a commemorative ceremony, the 1970 shooting death of two individuals at Jackson State College (MS) was remembered by an alumnus who was present. The role of local police and National Guardsmen in the occurrence has never been resolved, and some feel it has been ignored because of racial bias. (MSE)
