Unit 8 – The Postwar Period and Cold War, 1945–1980
Topic 8.8
How might the Civil Rights Movement of the '60s have been impacted if President Johnson prioritized domestic over foreign policy and didn't escalate involvement in Vietnam?
It would cause a backlash against civil rights activists advocating for peace.
More resources could've potentially been directed towards civil rights reforms and social programs.
Activists like Martin Luther King Jr. wouldn't become vocal critics of the war effort.
It wouldn't have any impact on the Civil Rights Movement.
