In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 8 Topic 12 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 8 (1945-1980).

In the 1960s the counterculture movement began in earnest among America's youth. Some young people got involved politically either to endorse or oppose the Vietnam War. Those who supported rallied to the college group Young Adults for Freedom and those who opposed it joined the more left leaning Students for a Democratic Society whose beliefs were published in the Port Huron Statement.

Additionally, antiwar protests reached a fever pitch in the Kent State Massacre in which several university students were killed by the National Guard.

But in general, youth culture simply rejected the prim and proper ways of the previous generation. The fine tuned voices of folks like Frank Sinatra were traded for the rough authenticity of singers like Bob Dylan. The hippie was the iconic representation of the counterculture during this time and the crowning achievement of this movement was the Woodstock Music Festival.
