1973, 50 Years Later
Roe v. Wade. The occupation of Wounded Knee. Hip-hop's emergence in the Bronx. These were a few of the big cultural and political events that took place in the U.S. in 1973. To mark that year's 50th anniversary, we compiled this exhibit looking back on what in retrospect appears to have been a very consequential year.
