Throughout the 60s and 70s anti-war protest was a common thing. Many believed that this is a war to be fought by North and South Vietnamese people, and the United States had no place in it. Protesters would create songs, partake in teach-ins where anti-war activists would meet and discuss, and some would draft dodge, meaning people would flee the US to avoid being conscripted into Vietnam.
