In this episode, we discuss the Anti-war Movement and civil society protest in the US with Dr Christine Kelly. Christine lectures at Fordham University. She is a passionate historian who clearly articulates the complexities of civil society protest in 1950's and 1960's. She did her PhD dissertation on folk music and how it relates to second wave feminism. We investigate the impact of the Anti-war Movement on the Vietnam War. We learn that the Anti-war Movement were, in a sense, born out of other movements such as the Civil Rights Movement, the Women's Liberation Movement, and the Student Movement. In fact, the Anti-war Movement can be seen as a culmination of a number of movements. We also look at some of the important personalities and events associated with the Anti-war Movement.
