The+World+1960-1969

My collage is about the Vietnam War. I picked the Vietnam war because I want to see how scary it was and how many people had got killed or injured in it. When I saw the pictures it was kind of disturbing but very interesting. The Vietnam War was a big problem in the 60s. There were a lot of riots because people wanted the shoulders back home to there families.

** What happened in the World between 1960-1969? **
Julian.W In the 1960’s the citizens invented the “Peace” movement or the “Anti-War” movement. The Anti-war movement meant that the people wanted to end a particular war or all wars including the Vietnam War. The citizens of the United States wanted to stop the violence that was going on. One of these people was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who wanted to end the racism by speaking the famous speech ”I have a dream”. During the 1960’s the people used a very common symbol to show peace. Which brings me to the famous peace Symbol that was originated in 1958 by a man known as Gerald Holtom

COLLAGE
My collage is about the Vietnam war. In most of the picture you can see tanks and such, but the hot pink back round signifies peace and hippies. One of the pictures in my collage is a f-101 voodoo. My grandpa worked on this aircraft and has told me lots of stories about it. Another photo is of a tunnel rat. A tunnel rat is a young u.s. soldier who can fit into he viet Kong tunnel network and kill all of the viet Kong inside. This is what my collage is all about. Other events that happened in the 60s were, JFK's assassination, my grandparents getting married and 4 students were killed at Ohio's state university.

Many important events in history occurred in the 1960’s. It’s probably one of the most influential eras to modern day music. Throughout the 60’s much of the music had been based on the opinions towards politics and war. Within those years JFK, Marilyn Monroe, Robert Kennedy, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr., had died. The Vietnam War was at large and many soldiers were wounded, killed, or MIA. On my collage I tried to show the relations between politics, war, and music/popular culture.

For my 1960's collage I chose a black and white theme. I chose this theme because I felt that the sixties were once a time of peace but then later ended in a horrible way. We had war and life for peace was over very soon. People felt that being nice and going with peace wasn't working anymore so they had to approach the situation in a more direct matter with force. I felt that using a black and white theme was better to show how I felt about the sixties. My collage has many different things and people. Many of these people changed many things in our life today. Like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. he got us to except our first African American President. He changed and combined "white" and "black" children and adults. That's what I feel About the sixties.



My collage on the 60's is about everything that occurred in the 1960's. My collage consists of the movies that came out in the 60's for example Superman, Mary Poppins, James Bond, Anastasia and Elvis movies. My collage also consists of popular events that happened in the 1960's. The exact events in my collage are the first landing on the moon, the 6 day war, the bay of pigs, and JFK assassination. I wanted my collage to also have the types of music that occurred in the 1960's. I listed some of the music like the Temptations, Aretha Franklin, Motown, and the Beatles. The games and technology were totally different from what we have today so I picked a few a pictures explaining the difference. I also included fashion in my collage. Fashion was the big thing in the 60's like the go go boots, peace signs, and the tie die. The 60's consisted of a lot of things and I feel its apparent that you see that on my collage.

More pictures, like the Berlin wall coming up, and the moon landing could be considered World. The Berlin wall coming up was very important. It signified that the Germans would split Berlin into two parts and that East Berlin would not let anyone through and it was controlled by communists. The moon landing was also significant. It signified us to be the first country to complete the task of landing on the moon. We even beat the Russians in getting there. It was a major accomplishment for the American people.

My collage is all about the 1960's. In my collage, I added many random pictures. My pictures are about peace, happiness, music, and historical events. I put peace pictures because When you look back at the 1960's, the first thing you mostly think about is the peace and "Flower Power". I even put some flowers on the collage for "Flower Power". I added pictures about happiness because people seemed happier and crazier in the 1960's from drugs. I added music because they used music to express their opinion on the war. I added pictures from the war and war protests because, I think that was the most important event that was occurring. I added historical events because they were important and lend up to today. I also added stuff that weren't actually invented in the 1960's because they were popular in the 1960's. I added moives because seeing moives in the 1960's was popular. Lastly, I also added cartoons because that's what kids my age mostly watched in the 1960's.

My collage is about a bunch of things that were around in the 60s. I chose to add the bus picture because it reminded me of Scooby Doo, which is an old show based on hippie kids. I also chose to add candy that was from the 60s because, hey, everyone loves candy! I also added Sailor Moon, a 60s Japanese anime, because I've seen the show on YouTube. I put the Whos on the collage because they really are a good band! I really had fun making this collage!
