1968

1968 with Tom Brokaw" premieres Sunday, December 9 at 9-11pm ET/PT on The History Channel. Cities burned. Students marched. Idealism flourished. Drugs flowed. A nation mourned its slain leaders. It was a year both tragic and galvanizing. But was 1968 truly as revolutionary as it felt? Did its fury and pain propel us forward? Now a new, two-hour special on The History Channel explores the significance of 1968 and the ways it continues to affect the American landscape.
