Vietnam, Woodstock and Women’s liberation
Vietnam War
The Vietnam War was a proxy war that occurred in Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia during the Cold War.
December 1956 — 30th of April 1975.
North of Vietnam was supported by the Soviet Union and other communists.
South of Vietnam was supported by the United States and other anti-communist allies.
Domino theory
This theory stated that if one state went communist, the states that surrounded it or were in its region would follow.
Many people believed that the domino theory, which is what the U.S. used to justify their involvement, was not justifiable.
Antiwar Movement
The movement against the Vietnam War began in the U.S. demonstrations in 1964 and grew stronger in later years.
Most people in the “peace” movement were students, mothers, and anti-establishment hippies.
Reasons behind the movement
Moral, legal, and pragmatic arguments against involvement
Reaction to the medias portrayal of the devastation in Southeast Asia.
Opposition to the draft
The draft was a system of conscription that mostly
threatened lower and middle class registrants.
Should the war in Vietnam have happened at all?
There are both strong and true arguments backed up by facts, and it is impossible to come to a clear conclusion on whether it was a good idea or not.
In the end it comes down to everybody’s own opinions and beliefs.
What we can be sure of is that the war did in fact happen, and that we cannot change the past.
Women’s liberation movement
The women's liberation movement was the collective struggle for equality, most active during the late 1960s and 1970s, which sought to free women from oppression and male supremacy.
Mary Poppins’ Winifred Banks was a suffragist in the film.
Goals of the feminist movement
Respect the agency of women.
Reproductive freedom and safe access to legal abortion.
Rethinking women’s roles in a nuclear family households
Equal oportunities of education.
FEMINISMIS THE
RADICAL NOTION THAT WOMEN ARE
PEOPLE
Woodstock Festival
The Woodstock Festival was a three-day concert (which rolled into a fourth day) that involved lots of sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll - plus a lot of mud.
The Woodstock Music Festival of 1969 has become an icon of the 1960s hippie counterculture.
August 15-18, 1969
Popularity
Despite the 30-minute lines for water and at least hour-long wait to use a toilet, the Woodstock Festival was a huge success.
Half a million people attended.
It was the most popular music event in history.
You’re cool .Most ly.
Thanks for listening!
