I've had an idea for a USSR wins the coldwar timeline. I've never seen a timeline like that. Anyway, I thought a good PoD would be for Brown vs. Board of Education to go the other way, declaring that segregation in public institutions was still legal.
The idea is that this, along with a bloodier vietnam, causes greater discontent at home. There are alot more riots and even terror attacks by groups like the Weather Underground or the Black Panthers. These groups cause chaos and violence, eventually leading to the people(the middle class) begging the government to crack down on the rioting radicals. So with an invitation from the people to essentially take unlimited power, the US becomes a totalitarian regime. Under who I'm not sure.
So how does this sound? Any suggestions? Any cool titles come to mind?
