On the night of February 8th, 1968, officers of the law opened fire
on protesting students on the campus of South Carolina State
College at Orangeburg. When the shooting stopped, three young men
were dead and twenty-seven other students were seriously wounded.
What had begun as an attempt by peaceful young people to use the
facilities of a local bowling alley had become a violent
confrontation between aroused students and the coercive power of
the state. This tragedy was the first of its kind on any American
college campus and became known as the Orangeburg Massacre.
