À propos de cet audio
In this episode of History You Didn’t Know But Should, Ray and Chris take a look at the chaotic and transformative year of 1968. From the Vietnam War and civil rights struggles to assassinations and protests in the streets, the presidential election unfolded against a backdrop of division and unrest. We unpack how Richard Nixon’s campaign capitalized on themes of “law and order,” why Hubert Humphrey struggled to unify his party, and the surprising impact of third-party candidate George Wallace.
Most importantly, we connect the lessons of 1968 to our current political environment asking how issues of polarization, protest, and shifting voter coalitions still shape American politics today.
If you think history doesn’t echo itself, 1968 might just prove otherwise.
