Examining Pop Culture - The 1960s

By Matthew J. Box

The 1960s were a period of social upheaval in America, and popular culture often reflected the political climate and social schisms of the time. Movies, music, television, and even the spirit of the youth movement revealed a nation divided by an old vs. new, hip vs. square, us vs. them mentality. This anthology discusses some of the serious and timely concerns that underlay American pop culture in the 1960s.
