1.The nineteen sixties began with the election of the first president born in the twentieth century -- John Kennedy. For many Americans, the young president represented a spirit of hope for the nation. 2When Kennedy was murdered in nineteen sixty-three, many felt that their hopes died, too. This was especially true of young people, and members and supporters of minority groups.

3.it's different because little money was a lot of money

John f kennedy was assassinated and a gave an a influence in our decade because the president was assassinated  and the church bombing

4.The lesson is that the secret service should be more ready and prepared because in the video where the president died they weren't paying attention to the president

5.About racism because the bombing of the church was in 1960s

Science in the 1960 was not great but it had come a long way they made vacuums.Science, according to John Ziman, past physicist, humanist, and author of Real Science, What it is, and What It Means (2000), states that “science is under attack.” In his book, he declares that:

“People are losing confidence in its powers. Pseudo-scientific beliefs thrive. Anti-science speakers win public debates. Industrial firms misuse technology. Legislators curb experiments. Governments slash research funding. Even fellow scholars are becoming skeptical of its claims.”

If science is under attack, has it always been? Or is this a relatively new problem? To answer this, specific periods in our recent history can be chosen and compared to determine if what Ziman claims has been true for both periods. An interesting period in particular was the 1960s, when substantial growth of science occurred and affected culture considerably.

Culture is often determined by science, and science must adhere to rules in order to remain credible and influence culture. The knowledge and technologies generated by science can be admirable or appalling and therefore must be regulated. But regulation has its impacts, and rules can result in harm to credibility and how the public views the sciences. The growth of science in the 1960s resulted in regulation and the restructuring of how the world viewed the sciences. Therefore I ask, how did the growth of the 1960s affect the credibility of science, and what can we do about it?

The 1960s were full of strange inventions. Some of the inventions would leave you wondering what the hum the inventor was thinking while other inventions were strange for the times because we now have a more modern version of what our recent ancestors dreamed up.From the earliest stone tools of the Paleolithic era to the latest digital advances, human inventions and technologies have shaped civilizations and transformed life on earth. The world of invention is never static: Expectations and capabilities evolve with every step forward, and each new generation boasts its own set of innovative thinkers.

Record players

There was a huge rise in the number of people buying records, in 1963 61 million singles were sold, a huge increase from million eight years earlier.

Portable record players from companies like Dansette were very popular with teenagers.

Dial-a-Disc

Just 25% of the UK population had a telephone, which meant most people used public call boxes. In 1967 a local call cost 2d for 6 minutes and 6d for 12 minutes.

In 1966 the Post Office introduced ‘Dial-A-Disc’ which became immensely popular with teenagers. Dialling ‘16’ allowed you listen to a different pop song each day. After being trialled in Leeds it was rolled out across the country.

Household cleaning

In the 1960s, household chores were done by women. But the introduction of the electric vacuum cleaner and electric floor polisher meant the time a woman actually spent doing household chores dropped from 75 to 44 hours a week.
