Who can give detailed information about the girl in the gun flower photo?

This is a classic moment when Jan Rose Kasmir, a girl of 17 years old, shoots with flowers.

Don't ask me about her details. You must know that she is famous for her photography.

You can understand the historical background of this event:

1967101October 2 1 day, thousands of demonstrators shouted slogans and rushed to the Pentagon, turning a peaceful rally against the Vietnam War in Washington into a violent conflict. Thousands of demonstrators flocked to Washington, D.C. from all over the United States and gathered in front of the Lincoln Monument. They held high placards such as "Withdraw immediately", "Abolish the conscription system" and "We are not going to Vietnam (to fight)". In the afternoon, a meeting attended by 65,438+million demonstrators was held, strongly condemning the aggressive war and conscription system pursued by the Johnson administration.

After the meeting, the demonstrators sang anti-war songs and shouted slogans against the war of aggression and marched to the Pentagon, where the US Department of Defense is located. Demonstrators surrounded and attacked the Ministry of National Defense building. They clashed with the military police armed with various weapons, and some people rushed into the Pentagon and fought with the military police in the corridor. Soldiers and federal law enforcement officers who defend the Pentagon are equipped with rifles and bayonets. They form a cordon to prevent the impact of demonstrators. Demonstrators still bravely stormed the cordon, and the vigilance personnel had to hit the demonstrators with batons and gun butts. Hundreds of people were arrested in the demonstration, including novelist Mailer and Dellinger, the organizer of the rally and chairman of the National Organizing Committee for Opposing and Ending the Vietnam War. In the evening, the large-scale violence gradually subsided, and only a few hundred people protested in important places.

In this anti-war demonstration, Jane Ross, a girl of 17 years old who was fostered in Maryland, appeared. As soon as she got off the bus, she entered the protest team and finally faced the armed police.

She believes that although the army is a war machine, the soldiers are all human beings, and they are all flesh and blood. She tried to persuade the soldiers to give up their war ideas. Later, the historical moment when she stood in front of the heavily armed military police with flowers in her hand was fixed by Mark Rib.

Oh, that's about it. If you really want to check the girl's information, the most influential thing recently is that on February 15, 2003, in London, 36 years after the anti-war March in Washington, Jane participated in the March against the Iraq war in London. Standing under her own photos, she once again publicized her anti-war and longing for peace. It is worth mentioning that marc riboud was beside her in this military parade.
