Thanks. I might give it a try.
My take FWIW,
- The New Left - The Hippies were the cultural launch of the end times.
- The Great Society - LBJ’s booster-rocket ignition of FDR’s unconstitutional growth of the federal government creating The Dysfunctional Society
- The Civil Rights Movement - More unconstitutional federal interference with individual freedom of choice.
- The Early Space Program: Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo - I like it.
- Paradoxes of the Sexual Revolution - The Women’s Movement is the most destructive of modern-day cultural phenomenons
- The Music of the Sixties - I like it, generally.
I think they need to add a lecture on the origins of the Sixties:
