Notes

CULTURAL REVOLUTIONS OF THE SIXTIES AND SEVENTIES IN AMERICA: HISTORY, LITERATURE, FILM Come study the movements that forever changed America into the country we now live in: The Civil Rights Movements (Black Power, United Farm Workers), The Anti-War Movement, The Women¿s Movement, The Gay Rights Movement, The Youth Movement ¿ from Woodstock to The Haight. The people who made these movements brought us ideas we now take for granted such as multiculturalism, gender equality, gay marriage. But the great changes they brought about came at the price of disruption, chaos, violence and a backlash that still haunts us. This course explores these revolutions and the music that made it all possible.
