About this product

Product Information

President Nixon's announcement on April 30, 1970, that US troops were invading neutral Cambodia as part of the ongoing Vietnam War campaign sparked a complicated series of events with tragic consequences on many fronts. In Cambodia, the invasion renewed calls for a government independent of western power and influence, eventually resulting in a civil war and the rise of the Khmer Rouge. Here at home, Nixon's expansion of the war galvanized the longstanding anti-Vietnam War movement, including at Kent State University, leading to the tragic shooting deaths of four students on May 4, 1970. This short book concisely contextualizes these events, filling a gap in the popular memory of the 1970 shootings and the wider conceptions of the war in Southeast Asia. In three brief chapters, James A. Tyner and Mindy Farmer provide background on the decade of activism around the United States that preceded the events on Kent State's campus, an overview of Cambodia's history and developments following the US incursion, and a closing section on historical memory--poignantly tying together the subject matter of the preceding chapters. As we grapple with the legacy of the Kent State shootings, Tyner and Farmer assert, we should also grapple with the larger context of the protests, of the decision to bomb and invade a neutral country, and the violence and genocide that followed.

Reviews
"Cambodia and Kent State poignantly reminds us of the links between the 1970 invasion of Cambodia and the May 4 shootings. The authors provide a concise review of those events, as well as the tragic consequences for Cambodia of the genocidal Khmer Rouge efforts to transform their society, and a thoughtful reflection on the process and purposes of memorializing history."--Mitchell K. Hall, author of The Vietnam War "This timely primer reminds older generations and instructs younger ones of what William Shawcross wrote after the Ohio National Guard killed four students during a protest over the expansion of the Southeast Asian War in 1970: 'Kent and Cambodia were to be forever linked.' Farmer and Tyner skillfully fill a gap in the popular memory of the shootings and the wider Southeast Asian War."--Thomas M. Grace, author of Kent State: Death and Dissent in the Long Sixties
