Today in 1968

Plot Hinted in King Assassination
Investigators are confused by the amount of conflicts between witnesses. This confusion leads them to believe that there was more than one person involved in the King assassination. The FBI is still looking for the killer and is “conducting the most massive manhunt in its history.” (Associated Press)

It's Easter for Becca, Janine and Amy. Janine tries pot for the first time. Amy is still angry about Dr. King's death.

And an interview with Dean Blobaum. Dean has been interested in the events of 1968--and especially the Democratic National Convention of 1968--for many years. He maintains a website about Chicago '68. His dayjob is at the University of Chicago Press.
