The latest U.S. history lecture from Green and Red Podcast co-host, and University of Houston history professor, Bob Buzzanco.
In this lecture he discusses “The Other 1950s”; Beatniks (Ginsberg, Kerouac, Burroughs). Rebels in film–James Dean and Brando. The sexual revolution of Kinsey and Hefner. Plus Mad Magazine.
In this episode, we give a film review of Aaron Sorkin’s “The Trial of the Chicago 7.” Loosely based on the trial of the Chicago 7 and chairman of the Black Panther Party Bobby Seale, the film is a lightly fictionalized courtroom drama based on the six-month trial of eight men accused of conspiring to cross state lines and incite riots at the 1968 Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
