I have a project at school on the 60s and 70s. Does anyone know of any popular books from the 60s and 70s?

In the 60's? Early 70's? That's ballpark. You had to go and get me curious, so I searched...couldn't find alot of info about it, but I know if I kept on it, I would - happy surfing!

the book "the cay" was used in a lit circle reading for 8th grade. In the Cay he goes through a big transformation so a really cool project to show that is this:\n\n1. At the begining of the book have all the kids draw a collage representing one of the 2 main characters.\n\n2. At the end of the book have them do the same thing but since the characters have changed the symbols will be different.\n\n3. Have them write a paragraph on how the character has changed and how that's represented in the collage.\n\n   This will illustrate change for them and is a lot of fun to do. Hope you like this idea.

Good book.  \n\n"At the same time, she takes white paper and glues it over the inside cover of the children's books, hiding the table that showed that the books used to be used by white students and were now issued to "nigras."\n\n They were so excited because they had an opportunity to read books only allowed for whites.

I wasn't gonna answer this question, but the more I thought about it, I figured I may as well.  I think the 80s were.  Well.. no... maybe the 60s.  AW HELL I don't like this question.  I say the 60s for breaking down the racial wall.  (Not that they were fun times, at all, but the strength of those fighting was amazing and did wonders for society today).  But in the 80s we realized that we are a united country that can fight for hunger and sickness. Remember when AIDS came out?? Suddenly musicians took a stand to do more with their money than spend it on parachute pants and cases of hairspray. It was a time when the nation came together with Hands Across America and Live Aid, etc etc etc.  Kids in my school started focusing on world news, instead of highschool ball scores. We had presidents shot at, a Beatle was murdered, space shuttles exploded, Russia toke their finger off the button, gays and lesbians were coming out all over the place and fighting for their equallity.  Microwaves became a household product. Didn't viagra hit the market in the late 80s? lol  It was a year of eye opening things. Maybe not a technological boom, as much as a psychological boom.  Shrinks were less shunned upon. Divorces were no longer taboo. Massive hurricanes hit the coast, and I personally saw neighborhoods becoming one family- taking care of each other like none before.  Limits were being put on music and euthanasia issues hit the scene when a girl named Teri Shaivo was in coma, and her parents wanted to keep her alive, while her husband wanted to pull the plug.  Walls fell in Germany. The 80s really influenced the way I saw the world.  It seemed almost like the decade pulled many countries closer together so our people and their people could hug. I'm not sure what happened in the 90s, and I'm not so sure the 2000-2010 decade will be much better.

Only one I remember from high school is the red wine in the street when the French woman drops the bottle foreshadows the blood that will soon be spilled in the Revolution.  Great book, though, and you really should read it.
