Kamala Harris has already been certified as the Democratic Party's candidate for president. So, the convention's real purpose will be to whip up support for her campaign in the hope it'll motivate voters in November.
Last month, diehard Republicans from across the United States gathered in Milwaukee to celebrate Donald Trump and his MAGA vision at the party's national convention.
"They're running what they call a joyful campaign, as opposed to the Republican Party that's running more of a doom-and-gloom ," Dr Chod says. The Dixie Chicks played the national anthem, Billie Eilish debuted her song My Future, and John Legend, Maggie Rogers and Jennifer Hudson performed. One of the largest is likely to involve the coalition to March on the DNC – a collection of many different activist groups – which is planning marches on the first and final days of the convention.
The largest protests outside a Democratic convention were in 1968. Thousands of anti-Vietnam War protesters clashed with police outside the convention, which was also in Chicago that year.
