  1968 was a year of protest in civil society (Prague, Paris, Chicago) and a year of protest in sport. Meanwhile, students in Mexico demonstrated against social priorities in Mexico, the host of the 1968 Games. This title presents the memories of activists who were 'on the ground' using sport as a site for the struggle for human rights.
