Description
The American Anti-War Movement of the 1960s and 1970s was a pivotal moment in US history. Between 1965 and 1973, hundreds of thousands of ordinary Americans took to the streets, participated in protests, and resisted the draft to express their opposition to the Vietnam War. This book provides a concise overview of this significant social and political movement, highlighting key events, figures, and its impact on American society. By examining the strengths and weaknesses of the movement, as well as its connections to other social and political movements of the time, Hall offers a nuanced understanding of this important period in US history. Ideal for those seeking an introduction to the Anti-War movement of the 20th century, Rethinking the American Anti-War Movement is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of this pivotal moment.
