I've been barely following this discussion, because it's often very difficult (imo) to say what leads to dramatic social events- when it comes to the intersection of those events with the intellectual movements of authors and philosophers. There are so many threads woven in to events like the anti-war movement it's impossible to tease our just one- and say "This is why". After all, many very religious folks were involved in the anti-war movement, and in the fights against segregation- those folks definitely weren't existentialists. Hard to think of any people less existentialist than the folks in the black churches. But they were a huge part of the movement. But I didn't want to get in the way of folks arguing how many angels could dance on the head of a pin... Until now :-)
