AMER ST 3031 - Political Protest and Culture in the ’60s

Institution:

Temple University

Subject:

Description:

Many see the 1960s as a time America fell apart—drugs, sex, anti-Americanism, and the loss of the work ethic. Yet the ’60s produced the Civil Rights Movement, the anti-Vietnam War Movement, a revolution in music, Vatican II, and the Counterculture. Martin Luther King, the Kennedys, Marilyn Monroe, and the astronauts—fame and untimely death. What was it like when America still had hope? How did it change us as a society and not change us? Why are so many still so angry about all that or miss it?
