Between the end of the Korean War and the escalation of the Vietnam War in 1965, the concept of an American dream" seemed to have its strongest hold on the American population. How did the protest movements of the mid to late 1960s and early 1970s confirm or transform this vision of the "pursuit of happiness" in the USA?

Answer 1

There were a lot of protest movements. Many of them merged into a conglomeration of one: anti vietnam war

And, there are several variations of the "american dream", and I wonder what you are asking. Sometimes dreams are Hallucinations. Servral during that time that were in evidence as hallunications was gender equality (womens' rights) and black equality (civil rights). s and s had not arrived by then. But the main dream that was burst was the belief that our Democratic government had good intentions toward others and towards citizens, and would never lie.
These times were exciting, and revealing.
