{"product_id":"the-takeover-1968-9780990657422","title":"The Takeover 1968","description":"On May 3, 1968, a group of Black students at Northwestern University made headlines when they occupied the university's main financial building and announced that they would not leave until their demands were met. Their demands, submitted to university officials in April 1968, focused on a range of issues, from campus conditions to the racism they faced at Northwestern. Over the course of two momentous days, the whole world watched as events on the campus unfolded. Drawing from archival sources and interviews with some of the takeover's key players, the book pieces together the events of May 1968 as they unfolded; it also takes a broader view, stepping back from those two crucial days to examine what led to the takeover and what transpired in its aftermath.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenny Thompson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Evanston History Center Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/30\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 506\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.62lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.13d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780990657422\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Evanston History Center Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40516663640179,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":42.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_fdd28de4-0a38-4495-a12d-270cbecb59cf.jpg?v=1665841689","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/the-takeover-1968-9780990657422","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
