The American Counterculture: A History of Hippies and Cultural Dissidents
In recent decades, scholars of 1960s U.S. history have had difficulty producing major works on the era's counterculture. Solid reasons for this may be that the American hippie movement was short-lived; countercultural world views can be difficult to describe lucidly; and hippies can often seem ridiculous. College-level instructors of American history during the Vietnam War era are more likely to assign memoirs by countercultural veterans such as …

Thomas M. Grace. Kent State: Death and Dissent in the Long Sixties
Kent State University is a major research university in northeast Ohio, with forty thousand students and seven satellite campuses, but for many Americans, it is known primarily for the grisly event that occurred there on May 4, 1970. Jittery, resentful, and apparently fearful for their own safety, an Ohio National Guard unit fired upon a large crowd of protesting students, killing four and wounding nine. John Filo’s Pulitzer Prize–winning photogr…

History Makes Its Demands: Identity politics, slavery scholarship and the narrative of Robert Starobin
Robert Starobin was a promising historian and social activist who earned his PhD in American history from Berkeley in 1968, and committed suicide in 1971. His main scholarly accomplishment was his 1970 monograph, Industrial Slavery in the Old South . However, his career remains of interest today because it addressed, in microcosm, an array of issues that continue to spark discussion and debate among historians, including the promise and pitfalls …
There's Something Happening Here: The Sexual Revolution in Lawrence, Kansas
Sex in the Heartland. By Beth Bailey. Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1999. 265 pages. $27.00 (cloth). LOOSELY TOSSED AROUND BY POLITICIANS, DISCREDITED IN THE PUBLIC IMAGINATION, and flat-out violated by advertisers, the entire concept of "revolution" seems to be in crisis. Whereas the desire for revolution was evident in the 1960s in countless ways, most activists from this period look back upon the overblown rhetoric of the new lef…
