Neil Young and Daryl Hannah releases video asking for laws against guns

Published on 11/01/2018

Neil Young and his wife Daryl Hannah created a new video for the classic 1970s “Ohio.” The purpose of the video is “to bring knowledge about gun control laws.”

The clip shows footage of the Kent State massacre of the 1970s and recent school shootings. He ends up with a group of young people shouting “enough arms”.

Without real laws protecting us from guns, and with politicians supporting the National Rifles Association of America because the association supports them financially, we are not well represented, “Young wrote on his official website.

“Students today are brave, demanding change in times of violence. We got up with them. They are us. We are them. This has happened too long. My wife Daryl and I made this video together for you to reflect on. Help the students. Help your children. They want protection. No more guns. ”

Neil Young wrote “Ohio” days after the Kent State massacre in 1970. “It was a key moment in our history,” he wrote on the site. “It was a key moment for me.”

I'm a Brazilian journalist who always loved Classic Rock and Heavy Metal music. That passion inspired me to create Rock and Roll Garage over 6 years ago. Music has always been a part of my life, helping me through tough times and being a support to celebrate the good ones. When I became a journalist, I knew I wanted to write about my passions. After graduating in journalism from the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais, I pursued a postgraduate degree in digital communication at the same institution. The studies and experience in the field helped me improve the website and always bring the best of classic rock to the world! MTB: 0021377/MG
