Description:

The 1960s was one of the defining periods in American history, when great conflict served to reveal fundamental elements of the American character. American values and practices regarding sex and race, poverty and justice, apathy and activism, violence and peace, drugs, music, and other issues all came under intense scrutiny during this era. This class immerses students in the "sixties experience"-the eventsideas, values, sights and sounds of this exciting and important decade-and asks what this era reveals about America's past, present and future.
