We provide real-time reporting of an event, place, or person. The articles take the reader from the Boston Tea Party to Turner’s Rebellion, from the New York City Draft Riots to the Haymarket Strike and the anti-Communist demonstrations of the early 1920s. There are popular editorials from the person on the street, the rioter, and the protester. The leaders’ points of view, professed goals, and personal opinions are presented for the reader to assess and understand the meaning and motivations of popular protest actions.
