Question

What became the "big stage" for the anti-war movement in 1968?

Answer 1

Washington D.C was the big stage for the anti war movement in 1968. The answer must be 20 characters so sorry.

Answer 2

The 1968 Democratic Convention was held with the purpose of electing the representative of the Democratic Party for the Presidential Election, following President Lyndon Johnson's decision to not run for reelection. The event was held in the City of Chicago, Illinois.

The event was disrupted by counter-culture and Anti War movements, which had previously announced they would do so. This action was fueled by the recent assassinations of social activist Martin Lther King Jr. and President Jonh. F. Kennedy.
