Echoes of Chicago ’68? The City and Activists Gear Up for the RNC
http://www.thebrooklynrail.org/express/march04/echoesof68.html
A party’s pro-war leadership is at odds with its activist base. A nominating convention is being held in a city hostile to political protest. Radical factions threaten violent demonstrations, from which a reactionary political party stands to benefit.
Not every parallel is exact, but the issue is clear: Will New York City late this August witness a repeat of Chicago ‘68?
March 20th - nothing posted. In the streets for peace with the rest of you!
