The 1968 Project: A Nation Coming of AgeThe social and political forces that swirled through the turbulent 1960s crested in 1968. That year saw the peak of the Vietnam War, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, riots at the Democratic National Convention, assertions of Black power at the Olympic Games, and feminist demonstrations at the Miss America Pageant. Hair opened on Broadway, Laugh In debuted on TV, and Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey polarized

The social and political forces that swirled through the turbulent 1960s crested in 1968. That year saw the peak of the Vietnam War, the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert Kennedy, riots at the Democratic National Convention, assertions of Black power at the Olympic Games, and feminist demonstrations at the Miss America Pageant. Hair opened on Broadway, Laugh-In debuted on TV, and Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey polarized critics. President Lyndon Johnson was voted out of office, and his successor, Richard Nixon, promised in his nomination acceptance speech that "the long, dark night for America is about to end." In the closing days of the year, we saw earth in its entirety for the first time from the window of the Apollo 8 space capsule.

The 1968 Project is the accompanying book to the 1968 exhibit, a major traveling exhibition developed by the Minnesota Historical Society in partnership with the Atlanta History Center, the Chicago History Museum, and the Oakland Museum of California. This companion book integrates personal experiences within the national context of the year, organized month by month, through photography, eyewitness accounts, artifacts, and illuminating commentary by one of the Twin Cities' top social and cultural writers, Brad Zellar.

Brad Zellar is an award-winning journalist, writer, and editor and author of Suburban World: The Norling Photographs.

Reliable and Versatile Adapter for My MacBook Air
I have a 13-inch MacBook Air, M4, 2025, and I use it for everything: work, watching videos and series, and occasionally gaming. I also regularly attend court hearings and professional meetings through Zoom, Google Meet, and similar platforms, so I cannot afford connection issues. This adapter, especially with its LAN port, has been very useful. It gives me more confidence when attending hearings online because I can rely on a stable wired connection. It also works well while connecting other devices, such as microphones or pen drives, which makes it very versatile. The finish and materials feel solid and high-quality. I used to have a white plastic adapter from another brand, but it ended up changing color with use. This one stays cleaner, looks more professional, and is easier to keep in good condition. It is easy to carry, practical, and very efficient.

Good quality product
Good value for the price I paid. I have all the slots in use and it works fine. It really helps increase the reading and network speeds, if (like in my case) I have to use both ethernet and/or wifi antenna for my company laptop. It is slim, sturdy, discreet and I like the main cable that connects to the PC is very flexible like a cord. Very happy with it. The only downside is that it gets very hot, I don't know why, but other than this, it really meets my expectations!

One cable does it all, rock solid Ethernet and great 4K output
This hub has simplified my desk setup considerably. I plug it into my MacBook and instantly have Ethernet, 4K HDMI, two USB-A ports, and 100W charging all from one connection. The Ethernet is Gigabit and the speeds are as fast as plugging directly into the router. The 4K HDMI output to my monitor is clean with no flickering. It runs slightly warm during extended use but nothing alarming. Build quality feels solid and UGREEN has been consistently reliable in my experience. Worth every penny if you need to expand a USB-C only laptop.
