Lets Move Into The Movement!

The 1960's was the decade of movement. Women wanted to be independent. They wanted to be able to work. They didn't want to be always relying on their husbands. They wanted to be able to provide for themselves. They wanted to work for as long as they liked for whatever reason they wanted. They wanted to be able to have control over their own body. What that eluded to was birth control. They wanted to be able to choose whether or not they themselves could have a baby. They didn't want to have it where their husband was choosing for them. They didn't want a life where their spouse was the one controlling whether or not they could have a kid, or have their own bank account, or where they had to be stay in mothers who cleaned or cooked. Other movements that proceeded the women's right's movement included the free speech movement, the farm worker movement, gay rights movement, and many many more. Of course with all this change, some people may not agree with it all. In comes the rise of the conservative party (those who didn't like all the change). They wanted to put a stop to all these movements. They wanted to stay in the past with all the suppression of all the minorities. They didn't like what was changing and they wanted to keep to what they had. Essentially the conservatives did not really get their way, but they really did not like all the change going on.
