The counter culture was also a baby boomer era and born again Christians held conservative movements along with others in order to make change. ]]> 2017-04-24 19:46:29 UTC https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956357 Key Concept 8.2 II https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956425

This music became a vehicle through which these peoples concerns were put into the music. These anti-war sentiments helped to build the antiwar community. Eventually, this music led to what is the 60's Rock and Roll which grew in popularity. The music of the 60's protest remained among the era's most enduring legacies. EXAMPLES IN ONENOTE ]]> 2017-04-24 19:47:38 UTC https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956643 USSR https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956953
Communism relates to period 8 through the cold war and every non-communist country trying to prevent the spread of it. After WWII communist Russia and the United States were left as the most powerful world powers. Communism spread to many of the weakened countries after the war and converted them to communism. The cold war was a battle between ideals, democracy and communism. The biggest fear for the united states was nuclear fallout by taking one wrong step in the new war.]]> 2017-04-24 19:48:51 UTC https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956953 Environmental Changes https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167956991 * Rachel Carson wrote a book an environmental science book called Silent spring which talked about the dangers of pesticides.

Since there was a lot of non-violent protest that sought change, not many people were ok with their ways. The black panthers supported violence to get that change done faster. 
In the executive branch- Truman's Executive order of 9981 wanted to desegregate the military. Making the Korean war the first desegregated war.
 
The Judicial branch wanted over turn Plessy v. Ferguson. And make education equal ( Brown v. Board) which many schools did not like the idea so they prefer to close down. When Faubus refused to integrate Eisenhower started to send troops to force the integration.
 
In the legislative branch- they had the civil rights act of 1964 which focused on the discrimination and outlawed it and it ended it unequal application of voter registration requirements and racial segregations in schools . As  form of resistance schools started to close before it became desegregated and their were also riots outside the schools when the colored students would enter

In the 1970's , people started to not trust the government. Public trust in the government decreased due to economic challenges, political scandals, and foreign policy crisis. Some examples, are Staglation of the 1970's where there was high inflation and raising unemployment. In the political side, the Watergate scandal which was a major political scam, this led to Nixon resigning. Relating to the foreign policy crisis are the oil embargo of 1973 and the Vietnam war. In the oil embargo, basically gas stations ran out of gas which led to higher prices. ]]> 2017-04-24 19:51:03 UTC https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167957514 Key Concept 8.3 II https://padlet.com/adhamilton68/all7ju1a5v06/wish/167957651 Old people vs Hippies:
