In August 1968, Democrats gather at their National Convention in
Chicago to debate a platform for a deeply divided party. Factions
are split over issues such as civil rights, infrastructure, and the
war on poverty-not to mention the war in Vietnam. Meanwhile, crowds
of protesters descend upon the city. Impassioned antiwar
demonstrators plan sit-ins and marches, while the absurdist
Yippies, determined to make a mockery of the convention, intend to
nominate a pig for president. Journalists flood the area to cover
the stories of the delegates and protesters. Over the course of
this game, players will develop a better understanding of the
complexities of the social and cultural tumult that has come to be
known as "the Sixties.
