History

Description:

This course examines the ways life changed in the period from the end of World War II in 1945 through the end of the 20th century, with particular focus on culture and civil rights. We will look at developments in music, film, the arts, and other humanities disciplines as well as developments in politics, civics, and jurisprudence.
