    A brotherhood of man
    The first thing we are going to talk about today are the reasons for the opposition.
    It began with demonstrations in 1964 against the escalating role of the US military in
    Vietnam war. It lasted from 1964-1973.
    The first protests came in October 1965 when the draft was increased. In February 1965 it
    had only been 3000 a month, but in October it was increased to 33000 a month. That just
    added fuel to the flames of the anti-war protests. Tearing up or burning your draft paper
    became a common occurrence and was seen to be the first of the protests against the
    Vietnam war. The most famous person to do this was Muhammad Ali.
    Beyond opposition to the draft, media coverage of the war in Vietnam also shook the faith of
    citizens at home as new media technologies, like television, brought images of wartime
    conflict to the kitchen table. For the first time in American history the media was privileged
    to dispense battlefield footage to public.
    Civilian deaths also became a subject of protest when photographic evidence of casualties
    emerged and that completely eliminated any myth of the glory of war. With no clear sign of
    Victory in Vietnam, the media images of American military causalities and body bags being
    returned to America both helped to stimulate the opposition of the war in Americans.

    WOMEN

    Women were a large part of the antiwar movement, even though they were sometimes
    relegated to second-class status within opposition groups. Female soldiers serving in
    Vietnam joined the movement to battle the war and sexism. Faced with sexism sometimes
    found in the antiwar movement, some women created their own organizations to establish
    true equality of the sexes. One of these organizations was Women's Liberation Movement
    where they were trying to establish true equality for American women in all aspects of life.
    A group of female students at U.C. Berkeley demonstrate their opposition to the war.

    GROWTH

    Gruesome images of two anti-war activists who set themselves on fire in November 1965
    provided iconic images of how strongly some people felt that the war was immoral. On
    November 2, 32-year-old Norman Morrison set himself on fire in front of The Pentagon. On
    November 9, 22-year-old Roger Allen LaPorte did the same in front of United Nations
    Headquarters in New York City. Both protests were conscious imitations of earlier (and
    ongoing) Buddhist protests in South Vietnam.

    On February 1, 1968, Nguyễn Văn Lém, a Vietcong officer suspected of participating in


    murder of South Vietnamese government officials during the Tet Offensive, was
    executed by General Nguyễn Ngọc Loan. Loan shot Lém in the head on a public street
    in Saigon in front of journalists. The execution provided an iconic image that helped sway
    public opinion in the United States against the war.
