The song "Eve of Destruction" made a comparison between what was happening in communist China and what was happening in America.

The protest song, written by P.F. Sloan in 1964, was recorded by Barry McGuire in 1965.  It included this line:  "Think of all the hate there is in Red China! <span>Then take a look around to Selma, Alabama!"  The message of the song was one that called for peace instead of violence in the world in general, but some American radio stations banned it from their playlists because they thought it sympathetic to communism while America was fighting communism in Vietnam.  As an added item of interest, McGuire, who had become a born-again Christian, released the song on a Christian contemporary music album, <em>Lighten Up.  </em>He saw the song as a moral call to work for peace.</span>

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>The song "Eve of Destruction" compared between the communist happenings in china with what was happening in America </em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The result of this comparison led to conflict among the nations since all societies were morally equivalent and had equal legitimate. All traditions and cultural heritages were comparable. Thus, western culture Christianity was not better than other religions. Therefore thinking otherwise was judgmental.

No group or individual had any right of discriminating anybody against any reason. But rectifying the past injustices, it was necessary to employ civil liberties as well as cultural conservatives

) new forms of mass culture emerged in the united states in the 1920s and in the 1950s. briefly explain one important similarity
MissTica
The 1920s and 1950s are similar in the sense that a new culture emerged. One similarity between these time periods is that they represent the United States emerging from a World War. World War I (1914-1919) and World War II (1939-1945) were two enormous global events that affected American society and alter what culture develops afterwards.

One common culture that developed during the 20's and 50's was consumerism. Consumerism is an social and economic idea that focuses on developing products that will interest the consumer (aka buyer). During both eras, companies began to advertise items in a manner that convinced American citizens to buy them. This rise of consumerism resulted in the increased purchase of items that people wanted, but didn't necessarily need.

Even though most Americans would fall into this category, there were some critics to this consumer culture. During the 1950's the Beatnik generation developed as an anti-conformist culture. Some of them saw capitalism and the increased consumerism in American society as negative.

Leto [7]
<span>The correct answer is : Under the system of rigid economy which the packers enforced, there were some jobs that it only paid to do once in a long time, and among these was the cleaning out of the waste barrels. Every spring they did it; and in the barrels would be dirt and rust and old nails and stale water and cartload after cartload of it would be taken up and dumped into the hoppers with fresh meat, and sent out to the public's breakfast.</span>
