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.

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.

Prints beautifully
Style: Starter Bundle
Prints sublimation prints perfectly. Colors are bold and vibrant. The first printer I used was an inkjet that I converted to sublimation. Wish I’d gotten this one first. It’s a world of difference compared to the print quality. So easy to download the drivers to your computer. The printer setup is extremely easy, just follow the prompts. Then, just click and print. Paper tray doesn’t hold a lot, but then again you don’t want too much paper to sit in the paper tray, because it starts to curl around the edge if left to sit out too long. Depending on how much graphics you are printing determines the speed of printing.

Great beginner friendly sublimation printer
Style: Starter Bundle
I have had this for a few months now and I will say still getting the hang of sublimation but it was easy to set up. I wish it was compatible with a tablet. I had to use my daughters laptop instead but it was worth every penny. Great entry level sublimation printer!
