After viewing The Trial of the Chicago 7, and reviewing the 7th
Circuit Court of Appeals opinion in United States v. Dellinger, et al.,
write a persuasive essay/argument answering the following questions:
2. Are the events that led to the 1968 DNC protest/riots similar to the current protests
seen in 2020 surrounding the Black Lives Matter movement, or the January 6th 2021 Insurrection. If so, why? If not, why not?
3. Should the Judge at the Trial Court have recused himself or granted a mistrial based
on his own judicial conduct, why or why not?
Requirements:
1. 10 pages, double-spaced
2. 12-point font, Cambria or Times New Roman
3. 1-inch margins
4. 1 cover page: Title, Name, Class # & Section, Semester
5. Page numbers in bottom right-hand corner
6. 4 primary sources, one of which may be the provided Appellate Court Opinion
7. MLA or Chicago Style, footnotes encouraged. If footnotes are not used, a bibliography

provided. However, the structure of your essay is completely up to you.
