Sexual Revolution Started Out In The 80's

the 1980’s In the 1980’s, the space shuttle Challenger exploded, killing several astronauts. The U.S. boycotted the 1984 Olympics in Moscow, Russia. As a result, the Soviet Union did the same to us. The artificial heart, tested in 1982, lasted somewhere around 100 days before the patient died. While all those serious things happened, music was busy keeping it light. The outbreak of the AIDS disease affected the music of the 1980’s. A sexually transmitted disease called AIDS broke out in the 1980’s

gender equalities, racism, political problems, and acceptance of the society. For example, 1960s was a decade marred by social unrest, civil rights injustice, and violence both home and abroad. These were some of the factors that lead to a cultural revolution. During these times, we could see how many artists aimed at these concerns through their lyrics, but the eighties had a big impact in our society. During this decade, The United States felt more liberalistic, and New ideologies were presented to

The 1970’s, a time of strife found within racism, prejudice, war debates, political troubles, and more. One way that many found to escape these troubles, was on the dance floor; with bright flashing lights, a steady beat, and a sea of hot bodies all packed together and dancing the nights away. This music, soon to be considered as disco, was a revolution, in this time period disco was not just music, it was a revolution broadcasting out movements of the era; feminism, the black freedom struggle, and

Abstract Which individuals or groups started the women’s revolution (suffrage) to voting rights? Where did the first revolution occur? When did women become eligible to vote? How did the revolution to women’s voting rights transpire? Why was it so important for women to be able to vote? The questions before you are the very questions I intend to have answered while researching this subject. I want to take my readers back into time when women had no voice to be heard, and no opinions to be made.

Generations of people from the 50’s to modern day have enjoyed a little bit of rebellion in their life. But while the rebels continue to rage against the machine of society, that society is constantly changing. Different issues become highlighted and more relevant as others fall to the wayside, but Rock music does not stand by jovially. With constant adapting and innovating, Rock & Roll always finds something to scream about. The history of Rock begins around the 50’s, right off the cusp of World War

bands were at the time, or even what they liked to do with their friends, it would be easy to tell which generation they were from. Michael Jackson for example was an idol in the 80’s and it was a typical thing to have a poster of him in your bedroom. After talking to a few people, 6 out of the 8 who were teenagers in the 80’s whom I spoke with, had a poster of Michael Jackson in their room. The funny thing is, if you were to ask a teenager this year about Michael Jackson, they would probably say that

American Women before the 1960’s were subjected to a life where they would be expected to get married early, have children as soon as possible, and then become a homemaker for the rest of their lives.

destroyed; their self-esteem crushed. Such was the environment of the South Africans during Apartheid. At first, I picked this topic with my friend, Holly, just because I did not have a topic. I had no connection to Apartheid whatsoever, but when I started to dig deeper into what Apartheid really was I realized I did have a connection. As a European I wanted to know the other side of the story, and look through an unbiased lens while digging up facts. Because I had no prior knowledge of how Apartheid

This is, without a doubt, the most significant and influential periods for women with the movements, organizations, and their new freedoms in modern American history. The Equal Rights Amendment Act was the first movement from women that started this revolution in the 1920s. One of the primary goals of this act was to eliminate all

Sumerian Records, the female and male prostitutions or transvestite entertainers were mentions for the first time. Then the Hammurabi’s Code also mentioned rights of a prostitute or child of a prostitute in the Six of Hammurabi’s 282 codes (Codes 178-80, 187, 192, 193).
