HIST 445 - SOCIAL PROTEST IN 20TH CENTURY AMERICA

Hours: 5
This course explores the nature of social protest in twentieth-century America through a study of the origins and evolution of several grassroots social protest movements. Investigation focuses on a wide range of grassroots organizations that span the social and political spectrum, including, among others, the Anti-Saloon League, the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), the National Organization of Women, and the Ku Klux Klan. Emphasis is placed on the diversity of purpose and membership of such organizations, the role of prejudice, the causes for success or failure, and the long-term impact on American society.
