2016 stirred the memories of Baby Boomers who lived through these historic moments:

  • LBJ and the 1964 Civil Rights Act, which ended legally-sanctioned racial segregation in America: All the Way.
  • The collapse of South Vietnam: Last Days in Vietnam.
  • The US Supreme Court’s legalization of inter-racial marriage: Loving.
  • Jackie Kennedy and the JFL assassination: Jackie.
  • The 1966 mass shooting at UT Austin: Tower.
  • Not really historic, but a weird footnote to history – the day an addled Elvis crashed Nixon’s White House: Elvis & Nixon.
