The year 1968 was a tumultous year for the Americans. The spirit of rebellion swept through every part of the nation including their political system. The political violence was at its peak during this time. Their leaders fought for power without considering the interest of the citizens. Racial prejudice and hatred became very powerful and thousands of lives were lost during the process. US Senator, Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated in June that same year. Laws were broken and state policies could no longer stand. Civil rights were violated and citizens were living in fear. The country was divided as the political leaders could no longer work in understanding.
