What I Witnessed in the Historic Year 1968 and What I Witnessed in the Historic Year 2020 in the United States of America: A Year to Remember
By: Jerome Watkins
About the Book
I saw violence and social unrest as a sixteen-year-old high school junior in 1968, which history has documented and recorded as the most tumultuous year in American history. More than a half-century later, as a sixty-eight-year-old senior citizen in 2020, I saw in real time, in particular due to technology, another tumultuous year of violence, killings, mass murders, riots, social unrest, and unbeknownst to me, I walked into live looting and vandalism on the streets of Chicago which was shocking.
