need to interview somone from the 1950's? need help?
1)Many people say they remember where they were when they heard Kennedy died. Do you remember JFK’s assassination? What impact did it have on you? What impact did the later assassinations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Bobby Kennedy have on you?
2)As the 60’s began the Cold War was certainly intensifying. Do you recollect the Bay of Pigs Incident and the Cuban Missile Crisis? What was your reaction? What were your views about our presence in Vietnam later?
3)One historian said that rock n’ roll music was the “pied piper” who led suburban kids into counterculture. Do you agree? How did you view the music and counterculture of the late 60’s?
4)What are your general recollections of the following: The 1963 March on Washington and “I Have a Dream Speech”, the marches on Birmingham and Selma, the Nation of Islam and Malcolm X.
5)By the end of the 60’s civil rights had gotten more radicalized. Did your opinion of the civil rights movement change between the early 60’s and the 1970’s? What was your opinion of the Black Panthers and other more radical civil rights groups-like AIM, the Weathermen, or Radical Women?
6)Many people view the pinnacle event of counterculture as Woodstock. What is your recollection of Woodstock (or the talk of it in 1969)?
7)When people think of the 60’s the typical reaction is to think of hippies, Vietnam, Civil Rights, and social change. However, there are many things that people may recall about the 60’s that don’t fall under those categories (for example-the Moon landing, Joe Namath and the Jets or the Packers winning the Super Bowl, the Miracle Mets in baseball, movies like The Graduate or Easy Rider, or TV shows like Bonanza or Laugh In). What are your recollections of popular culture in the 60’s?
8)Some historians have argued that the biggest change in society in the 60’s was in politics. They say the impact of TV, the white south leaving the Democratic Party (then later becoming Republican), the ethnic make-up of Congress, the environmental movement, and chaos and corruption of the parties, were all significant changes in politics. What do you remember about politics in the 1960’s?
