AMST 350 Critical Decades The 1960s 3 credits
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD Few decades in
recent American history have generated
more controversy than the 1960s. An era
once memorably described by the expression
that 'if you can remember the sixties you
weren't really there,' this was an age of
remarkable political and social change and
upheaval. Characterized by, among other
things, the Bay of Pigs and the Cuban
missile crisis; the Vietnam War; the civil
rights movement; the assassinations of
President John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther
King Jr., and Robert Kennedy; President
Lyndon Johnson's 'Great Society' the
counter culture and Woodstock; as well as
the first man on the moon; to say nothing
of challenges to the status quo in the
areas of race and gender, this was a
decade that changed America. Beginning
with a brief look at the allegedly
conformist fifties and ending in the 1970s
with Watergate and the resignation of
President Richard Nixon, this course will
examine the political, cultural and social
aspects of that turbulent decade the 1960s

AMST 480 Community in America 3 credits
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD AMST 480 0101 is
crosslisted with AMST 680 0101 and LLC
750A. The seminar will explore the
concepts of community and culture in
American society in the 1960s and 1970s by
examining two case studies: a geographic
community (Baltimore) and a programmatic
community oriented to international
service (the Peace Corps). The 40th
anniversary of the traumatic events of
1968 provides a vantage point for
understanding the convergence of forces
profoundly affecting both, as illustrated
by the Baltimore riots/rebellion following
the assassination of Martin Luther King
and by the anti-Vietnam War action of the
Catonsville 9. The seminar will provide an
opportunity for primary research.
