Man Alive

The Late Sixties in America (1975x28)

Air date: Aug 14, 1975

The third in a short season from earlier programmes introduced by Desmond Wilcox To look back now on the many programmes Man Alive made in the United States during the late 60s gives a remarkable insight into the crisis of those times. It was the time of the Vietnam war; of doves and hawks; of families put asunder: the hippie generation and draft dodgers confronting patriotic parents bewildered by the generation gap a mile wide.
