I was born in 1969, and here are a few important things that happened that year.
The first lunar landing happened in July. Woodstock rocked the souls of those who were there for music and peace. Surprisingly the Internet was invented that year. The Stonewall riots for gay rights took place. President Richard Nixon announced the withdrawal of troops from Vietnam. Also, a loaf of bread cost 21 cents.
