Notes

This semester¿s Tradition and Transformation examines the spoken, written, and filmed stories about the cultural revolutions in America of 1960s and 1970s: the Civil Rights, Anti-War, Black Power, Women¿s and Gay movements. The 1960¿s changed America forever. Without these ¿revolutions,¿ many of us (teachers and students) wouldn¿t be in these classrooms today. We would not have had an African-American President, or female senators in California.
