The Cold War has brought in 1960. Many of us barely knew existed Russia, suddenly caught as a spy for the United States, Russia, Captain Francis Powers, and we heard that Russia is "the bomb" has had and that we, the citizens of the United States was in danger of being attacked and invaded by the communist hordes. These grow in 60 years took part in air raids and bomb exercises at the school where you hid under your desk, on his knees, his head on your ass in> Air and felt assured that the war would be protected in case of nuclear power. Thank God there was one! People with the construction of shelters and storage of canned food and water, while some people have been accused of time, stick our heads in the sand when this time refused to be taken into horror.
It may be the uncertainty of life, with young people stopped during that time they were caught. Rock And Roll Music was born andTwist was the latest craze of dance. In fact, it was all a bit 'crazy. Invented in 1950 was the transistor radio in stores popular in the mid-1960s and changed the way a lot of people listened to music. FM and AM has been ruled out for the nerds! Most large U.S. cities had stations roll 3-4 N Step 'doing the same 40-60 hits all day. Any teenagers or young adults knew the words to every floor of 100 shots, was on Billboard Magazine's list or the list of local stations, wasat the local radio station or record store. 78 rpm (revolutions per minute) records were long gone and the era of the record of 45 laps and 33 laps he was born. 45 A single room costs only 97 cents, plus tax, while a four-song album was about 9-11 dollars. Most of the album had 5 or 6 hits with 4 or 5 songs that were not released as singles. Radio stations advertised "All, hits all the time" and "More music more often," and we listened with enthusiasm to what the AM station, we were ableobtained with minimal interference. FM was for the "Nerds" and was popular in the late 60's and deserves his place as a wireless standard in the mid 70s.
In an early presidential election, remember that a baby boomer probably saw the end of Dwight D. Eisenhower 's second term as his Vice President Richard M. Nixon goes against John F. Kennedy, the youngest candidate ever. The race for the presidency in 1960, is also the first choice that television has played amost important part of a. The charismatic Kennedy was "just looking" on national television screens, even if the radio only against those who vote for the Republican candidate, Nixon was lying. Lyndon B. Johnson ran with Kennedy and Henry Cabot Lodge, Jr. was the running mate for Nixon. Alaska and Hawaii participated in this election for the first time since gaining its statehood in the previous year and the two candidates were in fact born in the 20th Century. Historians still debate theApplications for this election and vote, if the theft had a role in the victory of Kennedy and Joe Kennedy, father of John F. s', can play a not-so-kosher section. Kennedy's margin of victory in the popular vote has never been so close in U.S. history and the electoral vote was the closest after the presidential election of 1916 between Woodrow Wilson and his running mate Thomas R. Marshall and Supreme Court Justice Charles Evans Hughes and his VP candidate Charles W. Fairbanks.
In 1961, furtherThe proof that we need to fear communism came in the form of a coup of Fidel Castro in a small country to overthrow the communist Cuba, only 90 km far from Florida. The Bay of Pigs plan was discussed during the administration of Eisenhower and Kennedy, which allows you to continue, he really criticizing the failure of the debacle. Fidel Castro has survived every U.S. president to date and promises to continue his regime.
1961 was the year when the Berlin Wall, which came into forceit is not. The Russian premier Khrushchev, chooses a huge concrete wall along the Soviet sector of Berlin, effectively imprisoning its citizens to build. As in Cuba, East German citizens were blocked and unable to leave for any reason. Many have lost their lives while trying to flee along with many others lost their lives trying, Cuba lost. many volumes have lived to reach the wall.
Along with all these negative monumental 60s was not without its heroes. Kennedy,Despite its shaky start, the most popular president in history. His assassination in November 1963 accused the United States and parts of the world in mourning.
The conquest of space was on. On May 5th 1961 Alan Shepard becomes the first American in space aboard the Freedom 7 flight. It 'was an embarrassment to us in Russia, managed to beat the punch of a few weeks, but this was the beginning of a race that would see people walking on the moon.
Baseball is still America's FavoritePastime and 1961 was a battle between the reference point Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris as they competed against each other, Babe Ruth's Home Run record. Roger Maris, Mickey Mantle was, but it seems to be the reminder.
Quick on the heels of Alan Shepard, John Glenn orbit the Earth three times in the same spaceship "Friendship 7". Then came the Mercury and Gemini series of flights, followed by the Apollo series. Challenged by President Kennedy's address to the May 25, 1961, on aa man on the moon by the end of the decade came in the form of success of Apollo 11 with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin on the moon while Michael Collins remained in lunar orbit. The last Moon was in December 1972 went to the last of the six Apollo missions, and during that time 12 men on the moon.
In 1962, the National Guard was on hand to sign up as James Meredith as the first black man to the University of Mississippi. This turbulent period saw the rise of Dr.Martin Luther King and tried to charm noisy men and women in a peaceful integration. His famous "I Have a Dream" speech was heard all over the world in 1963 before an audience of 200,000 people extraordinary.
... And the beat goes on .... The '60s was a period of turmoil, love, war, hate, drugs, rock n 'roll and heroes and villains. And this was only the first two or three years of this decade!
