Summary: What happened to counterculture? Why does it look different today than it did in the 1960s? Some may argue that its ideological underpinnings have been eroded; others that it is routinely absorbed by the machinery of mass media. But what does the term really mean, and how does it relate to politics, activism, and protest? What about race, culture, music, and film? Join moderator B. Ruby Rich, author Todd Gitlin, filmmakers Brett Morgen (Chicago 10) and Julien Temple (Joe Strummer), investigative satirist Paul Krassner, and others for this stimulating discussion. Recorded live Saturday, January 20 at the Prospector Theater.
