Remembrance

(Samples of people talking)
[Sample 1]

"The day he died was Sunday. We were sitting around the television, and the program was interrupted. The announcer...
Said that... he had been shot
We looked at each other, there was not much to say, we had been unable to save him. We felt guilty about that. And we were a bit apprehensive too, because we knew that there was an eerie quiet in the community which might explode at any moment

But that afternoon, as the Sun went down, as we walked the streets and the lights came on. Everybody looked...

We shook hands, we talked, and we remembered. But we knew then that somebody greatly important to all of us was gone
And he wouldn't be back again"

[Sample 2]

"You know, the news of his death, just, actually, split me open right away
I thought that, actually, that was a declaration of war. We gotta pay him back, you know."

[Sample 3]

"I felt that people seemed edgy that day. By the time we got there, I think, half of the hall was filled. But we did get seats. Then, while everybody's eyes were fixed on the two men in the middle, the shotgun blast went off. At that time there was utter chaos. People were screaming and hitting the floor. You could hear all the chairs coming down. But I saw a brother run up the stage, so I thought, 'Oh, I'll follow him' and see if I can get to Billy.'"
