What social and political challenges did americans face in the 1960s and 1970s?

The 1960s were a decade of intense political activism . One big issue was the Civil Rights movement that demanded equal rights for African-Americans. Another great issue was the peace movement that opposed the US involvement in the Vietnam War.

The 1970s witnessed the continuous civil fight of African-Americans, Native- Americans, women, guys and lesbians for their rights and causes. In 1972-1974, American society was shaken by the Watergate scandal that led to the resignation of president Richard Nixon who abused his power by ordering to spy on his political rivals and by obstructing justice. The Watergate issue strengthened freedom of the press and the role of the press as a watchdog of power.

there are approximately 11 million illegal immigrants living in the united states.

the argument to restrict immigration is based on the perspective of protecting the safety and employment of the american people. president trump proposes to create a wall on the border with mexico, where there is the largest influx of illegal immigrants into the country.

the liberal perspective, however, is based on the argument that the us was founded by immigrants who came to build a better life with their families. in this sense, there is a special concern with the definitive legalization of "dreamers", young people who have arrived in the country as children. another important point is the concern not to cause traumas with the separation of relatives. making immigration more open would also be a good point to stimulate diversity in the us.
