Harlem in the Sixties

Synopsis
Harlem was one of the flashpoints of the 1960s, a place where counter-culture, protest and opposition to entrenched political interest and repressive social structures exploded in riots and civil unrest. In a series of interviews with artists who have lived and worked in Harlem and academics who have studied black history and culture, the programme considers the interaction between politics and culture in a marginalised location during the 1960s.

Notes
NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
