HUMN 6354 - Remembering the 1960s: Culture and Change


Credits: 3

Examines eyewitness accounts, participants’ recollections, and fictional and film representations from one of the nation’s most controversial decades to discover how mass media influenced cultural perceptions and how later commentators on this era have constructed nostalgic or demonized versions (e.g., it was the decade that America came unraveled or it was the dawning of the Age of Aquarius) as ammunition in continuing contests over values. May be applied to the following curricular field concentrations: humanities; communication, media, and technology; arts and cultural traditions; global studies; American studies; human rights and social justice.
