The Civil Rights Era
The 60s period was charged with change and confrontations, most know the civil rights era because of racial confrontation and debate , however he civil rights era were far more than just protest and revolutions. The 60s were a full scale cultural change , it affected artistical , musical and social attitudes , likes and traditions. The success of the civil rights was simply because of the first amendment, such tool allowed dialogue between population and the government.
The 1st amendment is the key of democracy , because after all the american democracy is the only one in the world that can dialogue with the government without legal punishment. However the 60s weren't all flowers and music, On the 60s the world was introduced to many global tensions such as the Cold war , the Vietnam war and the american occupation of american troops in South america. What civil rights supporters was that the american government and the population were true to their ideologies , how come the land of the free are occupying South Vietnam , and many locations in South america.
Even though the Civil rights movements was successful, there were many other arguments that did not were not revised such as homosexuality , immigration , economic systems , liberty and many other topics that were silenced for a while over the argument that the civil rights was completely successful therefore such topics were not on the table for a while.
