The ’60s Sections A & B

ALL1412-C     Second 6 Weeks      Tuesday 3:00-4:20         Start Date 18-Mar
Grossman 106            Limit 25          This course is a repeat of the first six-week session.

In the ’60s, it seemed as though everything was up for grabs: gender roles, racial justice, respect for law,

order, faith and country. Some theologians said God was dead; others insisted He was very much alive – and

royally pissed. Prayer in school was banned; abortion was legalized – and the American Right woke up. The

recent election sets this era in a clarifying light: what was accomplished and what festered for 60 years to blow

up in our faces. During the course, we will have lots of discussion and reminiscence as we review the era and look at different developments that have shaped our future for over a half-century.   This course will be repeated in the second six-week session. Please sign up only for one.
