Drawing upon the work of Edward W. Said and Michel Foucault, as well as my earlier research on the Kent Stale shootings of May 4, 1970, this article examines the means by which the “imaginative geography” of empire contributed to the marginalization of antiwar dissidents. The article also analyzes the durability of the “May 4th Movement”—student activists seeking remembrance and commemoration of May 4 events in the proper historical context. In the process, protecting the site of the shootings became an essential part of the strategy and language of local activism
