1968- The Year That Changed History

My latest podcast production which looks at the year 1968, the year that changed History. Archive news material mixed with music from this period and contributions from political commentator, Tony Gramsci.

1968 was a year that proved to be time that the post war generation challenged the existing and established political orders. In the West social movements grew that challenged US involvement in Vietnam, Paris saw students and workers nearly brining down the French establishment. New movements grew supporting racial and female equality. China saw the imposition of the cultural revolution, Russia invaded Czechoslovakia. It was a year that changed history and set a new political direction for decades to come.
