        I remember this vividly. We lived close enough to Lincoln Park (this photo was taken in Grant Park) to get a whiff of the teargas the cops were using to clear out the protesters who had come there to sleep. I was pregnant and was persuaded to stay home.

        Managed to avoid getting hit but lost one of my shoes when someone stepped on the back of it while we were hightailing it. Threw the other one away and a stranger gave me some sneakers from his gym bag

        Was this related to the Humphrey nomination, also 50 years ago in Chicago?
