On September 7, 1968, a group of women gathered outside Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, NJ to protest the Miss America pageant. For Storied 1968: Miss America Pageant Protest we spoke with former Miss Minnesota 1968, Mary Williams Jasicki, who was a contestant in that year's Miss America Pageant. In this episode, we hear her personal experience as a contestant and what it was like to be in the pageant when protests were going on outside.
