1960s activism

The 1960s activism was a social movement characterized by widespread efforts to challenge injustice and promote equality. Key issues included civil rights for African Americans, ending segregation, and fighting racial discrimination, led by figures like Martin Luther King Jr. and groups like the NAACP. It also included opposition to the Vietnam War, advocating for peace and anti-war policies. Women's rights, environmental concerns, and student activism grew as well. These movements used protests, sit-ins, and legal actions to push for societal change. The 1960s laid the foundation for ongoing discussions about justice, equality, and social reform.
