Powerful message, Rage Against The Machine used it for an album cover.

Several americans self-immolated to protest the vietnam war during the same period. A climate activist named Wynn Alan Bruce actually self-immolated on earth day last year on the steps of the SCOTUS building

In the Ken Burns Vietnam doc they talked about it. Was insanely moving

Definitely recommend the Ken Burns Vietnam doc. I think I saw it on Amazon prime. 10 hours, or so, long but we'll worth it

Nice to see you mention it was in protest of SOUTH vietnam. A lot of american recountings of the incident tend to leave that descriptor out…
