University of Minnesota
History 1811 "The Sixties: History and Memory" UNDERGRADUATE
The Sixties was an incredibly dynamic decade in the United States and around the world. It was a decade of powerful social movements from the Civil Rights and Black, Brown, Yellow and Red Power movements to the countercultural, student/campus, anti-war, feminist, and environmental movements. It was also marked by the rise of a series of New Right movements from the rise of the Barry Goldwater to the election of Richard Nixon and the transformation of both the Democratic and Republican parties.
Fifty years removed from the sixties, the idea of the sixties remains alive in the American imagination. It remains alive and in tension with the new movements, like Black Lives Matters, and in political thought, as, for example, in Donald Trump's repeated invocation of the "silent majority."
