Boston massacre 1770


This pivotal event occurred today in 1770. Wiki here.
There's a reenactment of this event on the 10th of March hosted by the Bostonian society. Event page here
Here's what it says
Join us and become a part of this infamous event as it is reenacted in front of the Old State House, in the very place where it took place in 1770. Decide for yourself if the soldiers fired into the crowd in self-defense or cold-blooded murder. Before the action unfolds, hear from patriots, loyalists, and moderates who will talk about the events and attitudes that led to that fateful night. Free; in front of the Old State House. Time: 1900-2200
