0:00.0	It's Thursday, April 25, 2024.
0:07.0	I'm Albert Moeller, and this is the briefing, a daily analysis of news and events from a Christian worldview.
0:14.0	Americans are accustomed to seeing those black and white images of campus protests from the 1960s.
0:19.7	And of course you're looking at the protests against the Vietnam War and we pretty much know those
