Picturing 1960s Youth Protest: Dreamers, Delinquents, Students, Soldiers Lecture
Why were some of the students killed during protests in the 1960s considered “martyrs” while others were labeled “delinquents”? Alison Isenberg, professor of history and codirector of the Princeton-Mellon Initiative in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities, examines the photography of urban youth unrest and fatal violence in the 1960s. A reception in the Museum will follow. Part of the 1968/2018: Cities on the Edge series. Cosponsored by the Humanities Council and the Princeton-Mellon Initiative in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities.
