"The Revolutions of the Sixties and Seventies" explores the Civil Rights, Anti-War, Chicano, Women's, and Gay movements (often infused with sex, drugs and rock and roll) that changed the culture of this country. This semester¿s offering of Tradition and Transformation examines the oral, written, and filmed narratives that explore those times. Students will themselves create new narratives of the period by reflecting and writing on their own understanding of it. We will place a special emphasis on what lessons about organizing, backlash, and social change we can apply to contemporary American politics.
