UPCOMING
EVENTS:
Bring
Us Together: The Election of 1968
Wednesday,
May 21st at 6:30 pm.
Please join the West Branch as we invite Gary Hylander,
History Professor at Stonehill College, to lecture about the history
behind the election of 1968.
The election campaign of 1968 brought into the open many of the hopes and
fears of the American people. In its course, the short blazing
political career of Robert Kennedy would be cut short by
assassination. The campaign would see rioting in the streets of
Chicago during the Democratic National Convention and the rise of George
Wallace's American Independent Party. Election day would find
Richard M Nixon narrowly achieving his consuming ambition to be President
of the United States.
Light refreshments will be served.
This program is supported in part by a grant from the Brockton Cultural
Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural
Council, a state agency.
