\u201cThe Berkeley Revolution\u201d is not just for historians who want to analyze the 1960-1970\u2019s time period. It is relative to millenial\u2019s issues in today\u2019s world including women\u2019s rights, peace, transgender topics, and college culture. The problems that were being combatted are the same ones that politics fight over in the current day. This project allows viewers to compare how much these topics have developed.
\nThe layout of the project allows for people who are interested in the hippie era to read accounts of actual people living during the 1960s and 1970s. It gives a firsthand experience of what the movements did to impact the culture from the past to now. The types of projects within the \u201cThe Berkeley Revolution\u201d cover a huge variety of popular issues. Recycling can be connected with environmentalists. Transgender and LGBT+ is a huge topic today concerning equality. Women\u2019s rights relates to feminism and feminist viewpoints today. Racism is discussed as well. These important topics are directly mirrored in today\u2019s society.
\nNot only does the project interest people who were living in the targeted time period, but it gives authors and writers the opportunity to read accounts of a photographer and an activist\/impresario. It allows for writers to read other\u2019s writing and how their words portrayed their accounts of the past. The historic significance to writers and historians are in the first-person perspectives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
