There have been numerous social movements (organized campaigns for social, cultural, or legal change) in the United States that have met with varying degrees of success over the past 50 years. The cultural period known as "the sixties" (roughly 1963-1973) saw the rise of the second wave of the women's movement, the American Indian movement, the Brown Power movement (Latinos), an antiwar movement (Vietnam), an international student and youth movement, and movements for poverty relief and fair housing practices, gay rights, environmental rights, and animal rights, among others. 

Pick one of these movements. Use your library's databases to search for articles using key words and phrases such as "American Indian movement," "organization, successes, failures, media portrayal," and "goals." Then, answer the following questions: 

1. What were or are the goals of the movement you have chosen? Be sure to indicate/name the social movement you chose to study.

2. How was or is the movement organized? How was or is it run? How was or is it viewed in the popular media? How do you think the movement was or is organized, and how has its portrayal in the media affected its ability to achieve its goals? 

3. How successful or unsuccessful has the movement been in achieving its goals? Explain how you know.
