AP US History question:
Historians tend to portray the 1950s as a decade of prosperity, conformity, and consensus, and the 1960s as a decade of turbulence, protest, and disillusionment. Do you agree or disagree with this view?

Sagot :

Although this is a broad generalization, it is farily accurate. The 1950s were an incredible stable and thriving period for the US, as people returned from the war with higher spending power and nice suburban homes. The 60s brought a "counter culture" that tried to upset this norm.
