Taken during the Republican National Convention. I don't know where the quote "It's better to study the living fact than to analyze history," came from. A search reveals nothing. Probably something an ad writer came up with. I liked it's juxtaposition amidst the chaos on the streets, including the "Goat with a Vote" performers, who I saw perform here and months later at the 2000 Debate protest at UMass Boston.
