More Movements
Three movements, one sentence
- Latino, American Indian, and Asian American movements continued to demand social and economic equality and a redress of past injustices.
- Continued to demand — the CED says these were ongoing, not new, which changes how they are explained.
- Two demands: social and economic equality and a redress of past injustices, and the second is retrospective.
Select all three movements named in the first sentence.
'Continued to demand' — ongoing, not new.
Feminist and LGBTQ+ mobilisation
- Feminist and LGBTQ+ activists mobilised behind claims for legal, economic, and social equality.
- Three kinds of equality claimed: legal, economic, and social — different institutions answer each.
- Mobilised behind claims describes organised movements with stated demands, which is the same form 8.10 described.
Select both demands the CED gives those movements.
The second is retrospective.
The counterculture connection
- Feminists who participated in the counterculture of the 1960s rejected many of the social, economic, and political values of their parents' generation and advocated changes in sexual norms.
- The CED links a rights movement to a cultural one, and 8.12 gives the same sentence for young people generally.
- So the rights claims and the cultural rejection overlap in people as well as in period.

Different institutions answer each.
"Continued to demand" says these movements were ongoing, not new. 4.11's women's rights movement and 6.11's women's organisations are earlier stages — so the accurate claim is that the 1960s made them more visible and more organised, not that they began then.
'Continued' means a claim that these movements began in the 1960s is...
The 1960s made them more visible and organised.
Why 'continued' matters
- 4.11's women's rights movement, 6.11's women joining organisations, and 7.4's Progressive women are earlier stages.
- So a claim that these movements began in the 1960s contradicts the CED's own continued.
- The 1960s is where they became more visible and more organised, which is a different and more accurate claim.
The CED links feminists to the counterculture in the same sentence.
8.12 gives the same sentence for young people generally.
Various groups responding
- The objective, shared with 8.10, is how and why various groups responded to calls for the expansion of civil rights from 1960 to 1980.
- 8.10 covers the African American movement and the federal response; 8.11 covers the movements that followed and paralleled it.
- Various requires naming several, and the CED names five distinct movements across the two subtopics.
A demand that has been made for a century and is finally reported is not a new demand; it is a newly heard one. Confusing the two makes the earlier generations disappear from the account.
Latino, American Indian, and Asian American movements continued to demand social and economic equality and a redress of past injustices, and feminist and LGBTQ+ activists mobilised behind claims for legal, economic, and social equality. Feminists who participated in the counterculture of the 1960s rejected many of the social, economic, and political values of their parents' generation and advocated changes in sexual norms. Continued places these movements in a longer history reaching back to 4.11 and 6.11.
