EXCLUSIVE: Ecca Vandal Takes Us Through Her Favourite '60s Moments

This Thursday, Ecca Vandal will be taking part in the Talking About A Revolution discussion at Melbourne Museum, looking at how the turbulent years from 1966-1970 influenced some of Australia's greatest musicians. Here, she shares her favourite touchstone moments from the era. 

Burning of the bra

The start of the women's liberation movement. Women started to embrace their ambitions and in 1964 we saw the rise of the feminist spirit.

The Black Panther Party - 1966

The work of the Black Panther Party empowered and protected the Black community. This movement is still very active and, sadly, quite necessary in today's world.

The mini skirt 

Mary Quant's clothes liberated women and made them feel confident. Her looks empowered women and made them feel proud to stand out from the crowd. 

Breakfast At Tiffany's 

Does it get any classier than this?!

The birth of ska!!!!!

We have the '60s to thank for the dirty skank...
