The Greasers in the book took after their idol, Elvis Presley, who was a very popular artist in the 60's+

Cherry's outfit in the Outsiders was similar to the 60's, because the female outfits were turning more masculine over the years. She wore a buttoned shirt and skirts/jeans.]]> 2016-11-02 09:45:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ogaramike10/gr21myjtt6kb/wish/134702152 ogaramike10 https://padlet.com/ogaramike10/gr21myjtt6kb/wish/134706079 The book only mentioned the names of two popular 60's groups, while other jazz and folk rock bands still existed in the 60's.

The book failed to mention that men's clothes were taking towards the more feminine side, while the book talked about jeans, t-shirts, and jackets.

The book failed to mention any trace of popular toys in the 60's. Some of these toys included LEGO, G.I. Joe, or even pinball machines.]]> 2016-11-02 10:09:31 UTC https://padlet.com/ogaramike10/gr21myjtt6kb/wish/134706079 ogaramike10 https://padlet.com/ogaramike10/gr21myjtt6kb/wish/134708073 S.E. Hinton uses history in her book, so we could connect with some of the aspects of life back in the 60's. The Greasers and Soc's are two gangs that live in opposite lives. Hinton uses the fashion, speech, and emotions to set us up in a setting that takes place in the 60's. The Greasers were poor and trashed with worn clothes, while the Soc's were rich with expensive and sharp clothes. The way the Soc's would use phrases that you normally wouldn't hear in modern day society is another aspect. The way the Soc's and Greasers would threaten and act towards each other stepped up our understanding of the way of life back in the book's time. They would knife each other, cuss, and get into brawls at night. With all these reasons, S.E. Hinton uses, she is giving us a tour of the life of a gang back i the 60's.]]> 2016-11-02 10:20:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ogaramike10/gr21myjtt6kb/wish/134708073
