The colonial war in southeast Asia, which sawAmerican involvement begin under President Eisenhower, who sent arms shipments and “advisors” (1955), continued to escalate under Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon toward a wrenching US defeat, roiling the American political scene. Shadowing the Vietnam War(1955-1975) on the international stage, the domestic US political landscape was riven by the civil rights movement (1953-1965), which was reaching a crucial turning point in its battle for a desegregated, democratic America.
