The event also includes scenes from History Theatre's regional premiere of The Great Society.
The Great Society
1965. 1966. 1967.1968. Lyndon B. Johnson has just been elected to a second term. Dr. King's "March on Selma" is at the forefront as LBJ battles to pass historic legislation on health care, education, poverty, the Voting Rights Act--and then, there's the growing specter of Vietnam. as the election of 1968 grows near, Robert "Bobby" Kennedy, Eugene McCarthy, and Hubert H. Humphrey all make a run for the White House.
