Netflix will make The Trial of the Chicago 7 free to watch on YouTube this weekend. You can watch the Aaron Sorkin movie free of charge from Friday, February 19th at 12:00 a.m. PT to Saturday, February 20th at 11:59 p.m. PT. The YouTube special screening comes on the 51st anniversary of the verdict and sentencing in the trial, which took place from Feb. 18, 1970, to Feb. 20, 1970.

The film is based on the infamous 1969 trial of seven defendants charged by the federal government with conspiracy and more, arising from the countercultural protests in Chicago at the 1968 Democratic National Convention. The trial transfixed the nation and sparked a conversation about mayhem intended to undermine the U.S. government.
