Education
By the 1960's public schools in America had been desegregated by law, but there were still many Americans unhappy with this decision. The rock and roll movement fueled by the British Invasion aided the civil rights movement, as rock and roll was something both black and white people enjoyed.
The 1960's were a time for another equality movement on education, this one led by women. As the 1960's brought about a change in the typical 'stay at home' lifestyle for women, more women went to seek secondary education. Feminists like Betty Friedan pushed for a difference in the societal expectations of women, and urged women to pursue careers after secondary education.
