"In August 1968, Democrats gather in Chicago to debate a platform for a deeply divided party. Factions are divided over issues such a 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 protesters paln sit-ins and protest marches, while the absurdist Yippies, determined to make a mockery of the Convention, intend to nominate a pig for president. Journalists flood the city to cover the stories created by 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.""--
