Show moreThis issue of the Pioneer Press includes an article called "The Lazy American". In 1960’s the world was changing. Gone was the time of trusting every word that was said. A huge divide was rumbling not only in the U.S. but around the world. Some people saw this change an act of evil. Fundamentalist Christians saw this time as an attack on morals. Most attention in the media was on the progressive movements going on at that time. There were just as many people who did not support this movement especially conservatives. The author talks about the “lazy Americans” the Americans who question everything but gets nothing done. The author is saying that if America keeps on its current path that the Soviet Union will dominate the world because Americans were becoming too weak. This article is relevant to researches because it shows a different side to the political landscape of the 60's. The same issue that is being discussed today was also an issue during the 60's. This article gives a first-hand review of how some Americans thought of the progressive movements of the 60's. This article also shows how deeply divided the country was at the time. This article also shows that the fear of communism was rampant throughout the country. Summary and historical context created by Justin Berke as part of Dr. Michelle Carrigan's Fall 2018 AMH2020.

A political cartoon addresses the nationally occurring culture wars of the 1960's. A political cartoon gives us a local perspective of a national political and social issue regarding cultural wars of the 1960's; warning students of "the gap" between conservative Americans and those following the anti-war peace movements. Both groups are fighting for what they believe is right for the United States; depicted is an eagle being strangled as both parties pull to have it on their side. The strangled eagle highlights the harm caused by this cultural gap among Americans. Summary and historical context created by Whitney Durcharme as part of Dr. Michelle Carraigan's Fall 2018 AMH2020.
