By 1970 thousands americans were actively protesting the vietnam war.There where alot of reasons why it happened the way it did.Some people included revelations about President Lyndon Baines Johnson had misled the american people of the Gulf of tonkin Incident which led to the involvement in the Vietnam in late 1965.The end of college Deferments which was exemped of most college students from the draft and service in the war it was contributed to the protests.

The protests drew to the end as Richard Nixon who served from 1969-1974 began to withdraw american soldiers from the north and south war with the signing of the Paris Peace accords in 1973 which basically ended american involvement in the vietnam war.
