Write a 3-5 page response on something you learned on your own research of the 60’s so far.

The paper should be a “what did I learn” reaction from some research you conduct on the 60’s. Look up some event that happened between 1963 and 1975 and tell me what you learned from the research. You can do a google, youtube or use the databases for this response. Include the source MLA in your works cited.
