The largest and most organized anti-war movement in American history arose during the Vietnam War. After the escalation of bombing of North Vietnam, protests questioning the war’s morality sprouted on college campuses in 1965 as faculty and students staged “teach-ins” with anti-war seminars replacing regular classes.Anti-war protests usually featured violent clashes with the police. Protests against the Vietnam War started with young people. The burning of draft cards was a prominent feature of many anti-war protests. Many anti-war protesters were influenced by or veterans of the civil rights movement.
