POPSIRAN PICTURES: 1978-79 Revolution Echoes Protests Today Photojournalist David Burnett, having been in Iran for less than 48 hours, uncapped his lens and captured some of the most striking pictures from the 1978-79 Iranian revolution, which would depose Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi--images eerily similar to photos coming out of Iran 40 years later. The revolution ultimately put into power the very Islamic republic that is now fending off its own street protests--sparked by a questionable election and stoked now, as before, by killings adopted by the protesters as martyrdoms.

POPS4 arrested at Kent State anti-war march "I'm pleasantly astounded by these kids today," said Arthrell, a teacher in the Cleveland City Schools.

Substitute Iraq for Viet Nam and it all seems the same.

POPSHeadline May 4, 1970 This reporter, who was with the group of students, did not see any indication of sniper fire, nor was the sound of any gunfire audible before the Guard volley. Students, conceding that rocks had been thrown, heatedly denied that there was any sniper. Gov. James A. Rhodes called on J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, to aid in looking into the campus violence. A Justice Department spokesman said no decision had been made to investigate. At 2:10 this afternoon, after the shootings, the university president, Robert I. White, ordered the university closed for an indefinite time, and officials were making plans to evacuate the dormitories and bus out-of-state students to nearby cities.

POPSHill of Tara- illegal motorway going ahead
What spurred me to do this is that | just heard a report on the radio about a young woman called squeek (nickname we all have one)is in an underground tunnel , made as a protest to stop the undergoing of work on the m3 motorway to dublin- the capital city of Ireland which has seen massive growth with immigrant workers and the economic boom (celtic tiger) There are many people making massive journeys to and from work in dublin which is probably the main reason for the development there is a green party minister of the environment who promised to stop the before election who hasn't The european parliment seem to have deemed it illegal but to no avail The protestors obviously seem passionate about this major part of the countries heritage but I don't believe protesting is the only way I think persuasion of the public informing the public of the importance of the hill of tara possibly through literature and/or t.v making a programme focused on the issue would definitely attract

POPSLakota Sioux declare sovereign nation status Members of the American Indian Movement occupied parts of Pine Ridge in protest of the brutal killing of two of their own, the disgustingly mild prosecutions for those murders, and the beating of the mother of one of those two when she attempted to seek justice from the U.S. government. The AIM were seeking their rights under U.S. law and for the U.S. government to honor treaties with the American Indian that had been ignored for more than a century. It was a lawful - and a peaceful until attacked - protest. In response, the FBI fired almost 200,000 rounds at the protesters in an illegal show of force. The siege at Wounded Knee lasted 71 days. This was largely ignored by the U.S. population, due to media indifference
