Kent State & Jackson State Memorial
Featuring
Magpie
Terry Leonino & Greg Artzner met and began singing together in Kent, Ohio in 1973. In the intervening 50 years Terry & Greg have entertained, uplifted and inspired audiences around the world with their amazing versatility, powerful voices in harmony, and provocative, captivating songs, many of their own composition, on guitars, harmonica, mandolin, and dulcimer.
Terry was a witness and survivor of the May 4, 1970 shootings at Kent State University, and that tragic event had a major impact on her and her soon-to-be life partner. Motivated to resist any attempt at repression of dissent and free speech, Greg & Terry became even more committed to activism in numerous struggles including peace, liberation, freedom of speech, the environment, and worker's rights. In commemoration of the 53rd anniversary of May 4th, this special program will feature songs from the movement to end the war in Vietnam, setting the context for the many demonstrations that took place in the spring of 1970 including Kent State, weaving those songs together with essays by Kent State survivors and others closely associated with the Movement and KSU.
