After the fall of the Roman Empire, Europe's reversion to a basic economy limited the freedoms and economic potential of most of the population. Outright slavery declined but vulnerable people traded their land to local strongmen for protection. These people became tied to the land as serfs. It also paved the way for an emerging wealthy class to reap great benefits. The basic political, economic, and social unit became the manor system, and the majority of the population worked on land owned by the head of the manor. Weakened central governments depended on a system of allegiances based on promises of military service. In addition to childcare, weaving, spinning, and sewing duties, poor women worked the land alongside their families. Noblewomen were important as heiresses and candidates for marriage, as men sought to increase their wealth and power through marriage alliances. Women sometimes owned land and performed administrative duties, but most often a wife exercised control only during her husband's absences.

- "the civil rights movements"

- "following the american civil war and abolition of slavery, the united states entered a period known as reconstruction, during which black americans continued to suffer from disenfranchisement, racial segregation, and economic oppression. beginning in the early 1950's, black americans launched a series of major campaigns of civil resistance, emphasizing the need for nonviolent protests and civil disobedience."

"such as the montgomery bus boycott of 1955-56, a campaign launched by rosa parks against the policy of racial segregation of the public transit system in alabama. “sit-ins” became popular across the american south, particularly in greensboro, north carolina, increase national sentiment."

- "the counterculture movement"

- "counterculture began to develop in the united states following the rise of conformity in american culture during the 1950s. by 1963, youth, particularly those of the white middle class, began rejecting the cultural standards and normality of their parents, opting for progressive attitudes instead. the movement gained momentum as the civil rights movement became increasingly successful and as the u.s. military intervention of vietnam began to take a negative turn."

"hippie counterculture moved further into popular culture following the summer of love in 1967 when thousands of people came together in the haight-ashbury neighborhood of san francisco. along with greenwich village in new york city, haight-ashbury became a hub for the counterculture movement."
