I am not completely sure but either the domino theory as created slightly before the north Vietnam became communist or after north Vietnam became communist the government created the domino theory in order to justify a reason to join the war. There was never a lot of support for the war but never the less president lyndon b johnson used the full force of the united states army to try to win the war. President johnson most likely believed that they had already spent so many resources and if they did not win it would have all been for nothing also he did not want to be the president known for losing a war against such a small nation such as Vietnam.]]> 2022-01-24 02:00:33 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2007779826 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2007903765 Elvis Presley was known as the king of rock and roll for popularizing rock and roll music and his iconic hip role on tv.

The rebellious generation's whole thing was that they hated the idea of conformity and did not believe in god. When the rebellious generation were in their teens or young adult years they loved music, fashion, partying, under age drinking, and cheap drugs. When the rebellious generation were in their teens or young adult years the baby boomer generation were very traditional, they got married, could not get divorced, lived in the suburbs, had white collar or blue collar jobs, and worked in offices. Their parents were not completely saints when they were teenagers either but the rebellious generation were much worse. The baby boomer generation would describe them as rebellious, arogenate, ungrateful, and immature. ]]> 2022-01-24 05:15:29 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008013645 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008028884 The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense (BPP) was founded in October 1966 in Oakland, California by Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale. The Black Panther Party was about armed self-defense and against police brutality, and racisms. It was part of the Black Power movement which had changed and no longer used nonviolent protest tactics of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ]]> 2022-01-24 05:29:05 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008028884 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008109529 On July 20, 1969, American astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin became the first people to land on the surface of the moon on Apollo 11. They later also became the first to walk on the moon where Armstrong famously said, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." and placed the American flag which is still there today. The space race was a part of the Cold war, the goal of the space race was to be recognized as the more technically advanced contrary by extent of space expiation. The U.S moon landing meant that we won the space race or rather we were winning before the Cold War as a whole ended altogether. ]]> 2022-01-24 06:37:52 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008109529 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008703483 Brown v. Board of Education is one of the cornerstones of the civil rights movement, and helped establish the precedent that “separate-but-equal” education and other services were not, in fact, equal at all. In Brown v. Board of Education, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled unanimously that racial segregation in public schools violated the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution. In the decade following Brown, the South resisted enforcement of the Court's decision. Only 17 school systems had been desegregated under Brown by 1960. States and school districts did little to reduce segregation, and schools remained almost completely segregated until 1968, only after Congressional passage of civil rights legislation.

When the United States' table tennis team was invited to China in 1971, the trip was about far more than sporting competition. Ping pong diplomacy was the beginning of establishing official diplomatic relations between the United States and the People's Republic of China. Ping pong diplomacy also led to improved each other's understanding and cultural exchange.]]> 2022-01-24 13:29:12 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008747181 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008999292 The Pentagon Papers was the name given to a top-secret Department of Defense study of U.S. political and military involvement in Vietnam from 1945 to 1967. The Pentagon Papers revealed some horrible stuff such as the My Lai Massacre, U.S citizens who already did not support the war opposed it even more. The significance of The Pentagon Papers is that it was the first time people had a reason not to trust the government since the news and government were saying very different things people were confused who to trust and from then on the citizens would ways be suspicious of the president and their actions.]]> 2022-01-24 15:07:33 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2008999292 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2009060796 In June 1971, President Nixon declared a “war on drugs.” He dramatically increased the size and presence of federal drug control agencies, and pushed through measures such as mandatory sentencing and no-knock warrants. The war on drugs was really the war against crack and cocaine because this was when crack which was a modified version of cocaine spread across the contrary and was cheaper and easier to make but had the same level of addictiveness. Between 1973 and 1977, however, eleven states decriminalized marijuana possession. In January 1977, President Jimmy Carter was inaugurated on a campaign platform that included marijuana decriminalization.]]> 2022-01-24 15:29:47 UTC https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2009060796 abheeshupiya https://padlet.com/abheeshupiya/bgwzqc0rm9frpws5/wish/2009099741 Women's rights movement, also called women's liberation movement, diverse social movement, largely based in the United States, that in the 1960s and '70s sought equal rights and opportunities and greater personal freedom for women.
