1969 In Perspective, 50 Years Ago
Welcome to our time machine! In this fascinating new multimedia presentation we will put the wild, unique and absolutely unprecedented year of 1969 in perspective!
In 1969, America was in turmoil.
With the seemingly endless war in Vietnam entering a deadly phase, a quarter million protestors marched on Washington. The new President, Richard Nixon was sworn in, promising to heal the woulnds of our fractured nation. The year veered from unbelievabe highs to infathomable lows.
It was 1969 when Neil Armstrong became the first human being to step on the moon, Charles Manson directed grisly murders and Woodstock highlighted the Cultural Revolution. And no fan of the Chicago Cubs can ever forget the promise and failure of 1969!
Join us for a fascinating look at a turbulent year!
