Description: The Chicago '68+20 Conference was held Aug. 27-28, 1998 at the International Amphitheatre in Chicago. The publication is a documentary journal containing new writings, book and magazine excerpts, photographs and illustrations.
Notes: The Chicago `68+20 Conference was a two-day public symposium on the history and effects of the turbulent 1968 Democratic convention (held in the same amphitheatre). Sponsored by a non-profit ad hoc committee, the conference featured appearances by many of the key players from August 1968, including three members of the Chicago Eight -- Abbie Hoffman, David Dellinger and Bobby Seale; their defense attorney William Kunstler; and satirist Paul Krassner, who coined the term "yippie."
