Definición

  • Originally numbering eight, the Chicago Seven were a group of radical protest leaders arrested at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago, Illinois, in 1968. Members of the group were charged with conspiracy, crossing state lines with the intent to incite a riot, obstructing justice, and promoting the use of incendiary devices (stink bombs) during an act of civil disobedience that drew thousands of protestors to the city.
