The shootings on May 4, 1970 were not planned into the

individual lives of those they touched. Many present were

students, like Alan Canfora, who decided to rally together for

a cause that affected their generation. Some were chance

passersby, such as John Cleary and John Filo. Yet, many

others experience with May 4 began years later, including

Bruno Ast, who turned to his inner emotions for the design of

what is now the May 4 Memorial. But no matter how these

individuals were drawn into the event, May 4 continues

to linger with them.
