Reading for 1968 (Monday 3/5)
by admin - March 2nd, 2012
After today’s striking of terror into your hearts about reading, I’m sure you’re anxious to begin on the reading for Monday. The syllabus lists pages 130 and 147-150 in MO, and there are also two online links to read and/or explore:
Terry Southern, “Groovin in Chi,” Esquire Magazine Nov 1968
and an interactive timeline from PBS called “Shock Wave 1968” (requires Flash Player)
I’m also adding a third: the ZinnEducationProject’s page on the Orangeburg Massacre
See you Monday!
Links/Music:
1968 Miss America Protest (NPR – Echoes of 1968)
The Impressions/People Get Ready (1965)
The Rascals, People Got to Be Free (1968)
Phil Ochs, “I Ain’t Marching Anymore” (1968)
