As the Beatles sang in 1968, “You say you want a revolution we–ell you knoww we all want to change the world,” the 1960s became a time of pushing back against authority and conformity. Vietnam, the early Cold War, the continuation and evolution of the Civil Rights movement, the counterculture revolution, and more. Study this decade of revolution and change through film, short stories, music, and primary documents and texts. Students will have reflective writing assignments, small group and class-wide discussions, and an independent writing project.
