Past Present: Footloose in Greenwich Village - A Counter Culture Conversation
Wednesday, May 24, 2006
On today's Past Present, we'll hear excerpts from a 1960 radio documentary called "Footloose in Greenwich Village." It originally aired on WNYC. Also, Theodore Roszak comments on the counterculture that emerged in the Village and throughout the U.S. in the 1960s. Roszak is a professor emeritus at California State University East Bay, and the author of many books, including The Making of a Counter Culture.
