EastWind [94]
Student movements

African-American college students got very involved in the Civil Rights movement of the 1960's. For example, four African-American college students started the sit-in protests at the Woolworth's lunch counter in North Carolina. This form of peaceful protest became extremely popular and resulted in the end of segregated seating at this Woolworth's facility.

Women's Liberation

One of the biggest developments of the women's liberation movement was the publishing of the book the <em>Feminine </em><em>Mystique </em>by Betty Friedan. This book has sold millions of copies and was known for its radical views. In this book, Friedan discusses how women should not be limited to the role of housewife. Rather, they should follow their own goals and do what they want to do instead of being pressured into societal norms.

Counterculture

The counterculture of the 1960's grew from the development of the Beatnik generation of the 1950's. This group was against organized religion and often experimented with drugs in order to alter their perception of reality.
