WOODSTOCK: THREE DAYS THAT
DEFINED A
GENERATION TUESDAY, AUGUST 6 AT 9 P.M. ON WXXI-TV In August 1969, half a million young people from all walks of life journeyed from every corner of the country to a dairy farm in upstate New York for a concert unprecedented in scope and influence. In conjunction with the 50th anniversary, Woodstock examines the tumultuous decade that led to those three historic days — years that saw the nation deeply divided by the Vietnam War and racial, generational and sexual politics — through the voices of those who were present for the event that would become the defining moment of the counterculture revolution. << BETHEL, NEW YORK, AUGUST 1969.
