Zusammenfassung:The first baby boomers were younger than age 30 in the 1960s, a decade with aspirations of bringing a civil rights movement to fruition in a Great Society. The 1960s also bore fruits of violence at home and abroad.

Legacies of the Summer of Love carried baby boomers into adulthood and old age.
