Answer: I find that I don't agree, while the idea that the 1950s were more prosperous and conforming and 1960s were a decade of turbulence. It is largely a stereotype as the civil Rights movement and protests Wich can be seen more towards turbulent and uncontrollable. The civil Rights movement started in 1954 and ended around 1968, same year as the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. An activist that started the movement towards practically and equal rights in 1955, meaning half that decade was incredibly unjust with no recognition. It's easy to see how the 1950s might be a good decade for America considering the idealization of nuclear families and how America had one of the world's strongest military powers, but inside America was unjust and unruly place and the 1950s were having activists and protests and propaganda/fight of communism, baby boom and probably only seemed much more peaceful than the 1960s due to the recent end of ww2 in 1945, leaving the 1950s seeming utterly angelic in comparison when much racism sexism, homophobia and xenophobia lied under the rug but very much prominent. While in the 1960s the avoidance of war and the acknowledgement of racial, and sexist profiling were igniting awareness in the common person. So while at first glance the 1950s may appear to have been the more prosperous it was truly the 1960s that caused real change and equality to push forward through old and outdated societal "norms".

Explanation: sorry I'm not very good at making a flowing essay so you'll probably have to smooth it out with better transitions and more key information like dates/times and names

What happened during 'the great fear' period​
Alborosie

Answer:

(Hope this helps can I pls have brainlist (crown)☺️)

Explanation:

In late July, the worst of the Great Fear riots erupted in Dauphiné, in south-eastern France. Peasant gangs began a five-day orgy of devastation in Bourgoin, ransacking and destroying various châteaux until they were dispersed by volunteer troops from Lyons and Grenoble. Unless they attempted to resist, the nobility were not injured.

In the spring of 1789, the situation became grave as France faced its greatest food shortage in years. Even the peasants' own little food supplies were depleting while multitudes in the metropolis starved or gave up nearly all of their paychecks for even.

The political turmoil of 1788-1789 also shook peasant communities. The assembly of the Estates-General and the writing of the cahiers instilled hope and expectation across the land. The act of producing the cahiers had brought peasants together to talk about their problems and voice their frustrations, notably about the weight of royal taxes and feudal dues.

In late July, these worries of royal and aristocratic retaliation grew tremendously. The power of gossip only grew stronger as peasant dissatisfaction grew (as the great historian Lefebvre phrased it, "fear fed dread").

The Great Fear had some organisation and leadership in certain villages and small towns. The residents gathered on the village green or square to hear from their elected officials. Some people decided to go on the offensive against suspected counter-revolutionaries.

Great Fear, French Grande Peur, a moment of fear and unrest by peasants and others during the French Revolution, amid rumours of a "aristocratic conspiracy" by the monarch and the privileged to topple the Third Estate.
