There were multiple things that were going on during her time and it was a very scary time for her in the 1950's. Some of the things that were happening during that time were post world war 2 boom, the dawn of the cold war, and the civil rights movements in the united states. This affected my family a lot because of the expansion of the capitalism and it made it difficult for my great grandma to get to the united states at that time so during this she stayed in mexico. And the scariest moment in my grandmas, and great grandmas life was the cold war, they did not even want to leave their house during that time. So for all of these events they just stayed in their house staying safe from the things that were going on in the world.
