extra credit unit 2.edited.docx Hist -1302 Hist -1302-82001 Section A In the sixties, the youth practiced counterculture. They did this as a form of rebellion; their practices oppose those of the established community. There are two sides to it. Some used it to rebel against freedoms and rights being deprived, such as freedom of speech, racial equality, and women's rights. Others used this platform to rebel against all norms observed by their parents; drug abuse, indecency, violence, and freedom. This was important because minor groups in the society needed a platform so that their voices could be heard. Groups that benefited from the counterculture include the youth and university students who were now able to be heard, women were given their rights to earn equal wages at workplaces, the African-Americans were given their civil rights when the civil rights bill had been passed, and the Native Indians were able to get support in sustaining their agricultural practices (grapes boycotts) among other rights such as education and equal working opportunities.
