PROTEST IN CHICAGO

The worst violence surrounding the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago came near the Hilton Hotel, where most of the delegates stayed. When some 3,000 protesters marching toward the convention site came up against a line of police, the police attacked not only the demonstrators but also reporters, hotel guests, and bystanders, driving a crowd through the plate-glass window of the hotel and injuring hundreds.
