Description

Looking Back at 1963
with Evan Weiner, Journalist, Author
 

It was the year that the Civil Rights struggles made it onto TV and people took notice. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered his “I’ve Got a Dream” speech in Washington. The United States continued its involvement in South Vietnam. Beatlemania was raging through England. There were coup d’états in the Middle East. The Cold War and Space Race continued. JFK’s assassination stunned the world. Join us for this virtual retrospective on a tumultuous year in history.
