Protest Culture -1960s- 5 White

Mrs Habib

We have been learning about Protests in Topic. In the 1960s protest culture emerged, particularly amongst the youth. People were now anti-war and as wars raged became more anti-establishment. Across the world the Civil rights, rights-movement inspired people to fight for equal rights.

Do we still see protests fighting for rights today? How? Why? Do you think the 1960s started this? What did you learn today?

Can you answer some of these questions please. What are Civil Rights? What are protests? What is culture?

Key Vocabulary:

Respect

Liberty

Equality

Government

Protest

Culture

Youth

Movement

      I am glad that you all know who Martin Luther King was and his importance in history. Well done to those children who have answered the questions in this blog. Super!

    We do still see protests because of racism. I think the 1960s started it this again because after Martin Luther King died it may have happened again.
    I learned more about Martin Luther King and what his dream was that happened. He said that he would want boys and girls to join hands together.

    Civil rights is when someone wants something to change.
