Course traces and documents changes of the 1960s, an era that has quickly become covered in myth despite its nearness to our own times. The period from the election of John F. Kennedy (1960) to the fall of Saigon (1975) remains crucial for an understanding of current issues and attitudes. Those years reshaped American culture and society in many ways. Vivid events and slogans shattered the images of an earlier time and created a new America. Course goal is to trace and document these changes. 3 CREDIT S
