The correct answer is C. During the 1960s, opposition to the Vietnam War increased as the decade progressed.
The protests against the Vietnam War began in 1963 and spread at great speed throughout the United States, increasing in size and significance over the years. It was then when United States polarized between those who advocated continuing the war and those who wanted immediate peace. The movement saw the participation of students, mothers of soldiers, African Americans, hippies, educators, religious, academics, journalists, lawyers, doctors, military veterans and in general all the factions of the American society of the time. The oppositions were from large peaceful demonstrations - highlighting on April 24, 1971, when more than 500,000 people marched peacefully through Washington D.C against the war - and violent street riots.
