cotton TSPTR sweatshirt in purple with water based ink print
On March 1, 1961, John F Kennedy signed Executive Order
10924 that officially started the Peace Corps. Concerned with the growing tide of revolutionary sentiment in the Third World
, Kennedy saw the Peace Corps as a means of countering the stereotype
of the "ugly American"
and "Yankee Imperialism"
especially in the emerging nations of post-colonial Africa and Asia.
The consequences of the United States' military involvement in Vietnam and South East Asia very much extended to the Peace Corps. During the conflict, a significant number of Peace Corps Volunteers joined the American protest movement opposed to the war.
