What is ohio (1953 song)?

"Ohio" is a protest song written by Neil Young in response to the 1970 Kent State shooting, where four students were killed by National Guardsmen during a protest against the Vietnam War. The song was performed by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young and released as a single in June 1970, just two weeks after the shooting. The song became a hit and was a powerful symbol of the anti-war movement. It also helped to popularize the use of music as a form of protest and social commentary. The song's lyrics express anger and frustration with the government and the senseless violence of the war. The chorus, which repeats "Four dead in Ohio," has become a memorable and powerful statement against political violence and repression.
