In 1960s History Trivia: The Sixties Are Calling we’ll be celebrating this decade. We’re inviting you to test yourself on 10 questions relating to key themes and events of the period. In the quiz you can expect to face questions on some landmark moments in US Presidencies. However, there will also be questions on natural disasters that took place during this period.
The legendary Swingin’ 60s was a huge decade for fashion, for both women and men alike. In the early part of the decade the drain pipe jean was a huge hit, as was the Capri pant, made famous by Audrey Hepburn. The 1960s was also an era of frivolity and jocularity: the youth movement of the day took on a life of its own and the birth of the ‘hippie’ rose to prominence during this time.
