2024 has rammed electoral-year people,  places,  and events into our hearts, minds, and nerves.

Another election 56 years ago also roared into our national consciousness.  The Tet Offensive exposed the failures of the Vietnam War.  Hair rocked Broadway with its naked hippiedom.

A white supremacist assassinated Martin Luther King in Memphis.  Robert F Kennedy was shot down in Los Angeles.  In Chicago a protested 1968 Democratic convention chose Hubert Humphrey over Senator Eugene McCarthy,  paving the way for a Nixon victory.

What does that pivotal year mean to you?  Think back to 1968 and share forward!
