YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Before the Old State House in downtown Boston, there is a large and prominent marker to commemorate the precise location where the so-called Boston Massacre took place. The wording and design of the memorial leave no doubt in the viewer's mind: that they are standing on the very precise ground where a momentous historical event had occurred. Does that star commemorate the place where Crispus Attucks fell? Perhaps it marks the ground where Captain Preston pleaded with those angry crowds?

Or, perhaps it is none of these things, and the event actually took place in a very different location to what the memorial tells us...
