Phil Cooper Have you told your kids about the 60s? (39) RE: Have you told your kids about the 60s? 18 Sep 18


I was substitute teaching a history class a couple years ago and the era was the late 1960's. I was starting high school around then. I told the kids in class that a big concern of ours was the draft and the Viet Nam war. I did sing them a verse of Lyndon Johnson Told the Nation. One kid asked if I was a hippy back then. I said only on weekends. Then mentioned for the summer of love thing I was just 14 years old and a little too straight laced for all that (I made up for lost time in college in the mid 70's). I did mention being at a peace demonstration in Chicago the weekend after Kent State happened, and that I didn't dare tell my parents that I was there.
