Answer:

The violent protests held in 1968 during the Democratic National Convention were motivated by young people's dissatisfaction with the Vietnam War.

Explanation:

When the 1968 Democratic National Convention began in Chicago, thousands of young activists from all over the country gathered in the city to protest against the Vietnam War. In a confrontation that was televised live, Americans were shocked to see Chicago police beating anti-war protesters on the streets of the city. As protesters shouted "The whole world is watching," police used sticks and tear gas to repel demonstrators, leaving many of them bloody and stunned. The tear gas still floated in suites of numerous hotels, in one of them Vice President Humphrey was watching the event on television. However, police claimed their actions were justified because police officers were being injured by bottles, stones and shards of glass being thrown at them by protesters, and protesters also shouted verbal insults at police officers, calling them "pigs" and other epithets. The anti-war riots divided the base of the Democratic Party, with some supporting the protesters and feeling that the police were being weighed, but others frowned on the violence and supported the police.

Alborosie
The end of the 80s and early 90s saw the defeat of USSR in Afghanistan and eventual collapse of the Soviet Union.
