Evolution Trailer (1969) - Why Evolution?


It was 1969........no one was sane, short boards were what you see in this clip and the Vietnam War was raging along with an equal amount of protesters.

Richard Nixon was corrupting the world, Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison were swallowing trips like water and surfers were hippies who needed to get a job.

Women were not equal to Men and got paid less for the same job as men.
Children were taken from single mothers and adopted (white and black)
There was no Holiday Pay
There were no sickies
Bell bottom trousers were the trend.
There was no national health scheme and everyone had to pay for their own doctors and health care.
Homosexuality meant that hetrosexual people could bash them.
No woman could get a housing loan
You were caned at school
Conscription to the Army meant you had no choice, and at 19 you could not vote.
Indigenous people may as well not have existed.
There were no social benefits for single parents, the mentally ill, rent assistance, etc

SO THE TIME CAME................................
WAS IT EVOLUTION THAT MADE THE CHANGE
OR WAS IT A REVOLUTION IN SOCIAL DISOBEDIENCE?

Enjoy this clip from a time when we all thought we would rule the world and everyone would be equal......
