From MRM " 1968 was an inflection point in US history - more violent than any year since the Civil War - and with social divisions as traumatic as those that fueled the Civil War that was barely 100 years earlier at that point. Now more than 150 years since the start of Reconstruction we are on the 50th anniversary of its historical echo in 1968. It would do us all well to take a moment and remember and think and try to make some sense of it all. "
I graduated HS in 1968. A pivotal year for me. The country was on fire. From Tet in January to the landing on the moon in December, I have never seen a year as turbulent than 1968.
well said MRM!
