Alles, was Wissen schafft#17 Pop, Skandal und Emotionen // mit Bodo Mrozek70 min
Mitte der 50er Jahre versetzt der Rock `N Roll die Jugend in Ekstase und alle anderen in Schreck und Schock. Infernalisch, apokalyptisch, obszön, wettern die Tugendwächter. Von Chicago bis Tokio, von Oslo bis nach Geesthacht fragen sich die Empörten, was mit dieser halbstarken tanzverrückten Jugend los ist und bangen um die zivilisierte Welt. Mit dem Historiker Bodo Mrozek spricht Heike Muß über ein aufregendes Jahrzehnt (1956 bis 1966), in dem Jugendkultur und Pop unsere Gesellschaft veränderten.
