Summary
The 1960s was the decade America transformed from a country of conformity to a land of political, cultural and social liberation. The events of that tumultuous ten-year period reshaped America to such an extent that it still remains an epoch of fascination today and every step of the way, television helped frame and enable that change. Featuring unique perspectives and rare, original footage, The Sixties will not just re-examine the familiar... it will unearth the unknown
