Anne Goddard Speaks at Lie-In

Title

Anne Goddard Speaks at Lie-In

Description

Anne Goddard, whose son Colin was injured during the April 16 shootings at Virginia Tech, speaks at a student "lie-in" on the drillfield on April 16, 2008, A Day of Remembrance. Organized by Virginia Tech senior Alison St. Onge, the lie-in was designed as both a protest against easy access to firearms and a memorial to the victims. Family and friends of the victims spoke at the event before dozens of supporters laid down in silent protest and reflection.
