GANG
These gangs from the 1950s are much different than the gangs we see today. The gangs of today mainly fight over drugs, but the gangs from yesteryear fought over “turf,” patches of land that might not seem much to us today but were very important to the participants back then.
YOUTH REBELLION
The 1950s was a decade of prosperity, optimism, conservatism and conformity. But as the erea neared its end, a counter-culture reared its head through American society along the lines of "Leave It to Beaver" meets "Twin Peaks." Rebellion and non-conformity were the reactions to the “white-bread” texture of American society. Various celebrities epitomized the defiance of youth—Marlon Brandon, James Dean, Elvis Presley, Jack Kerouac, and others. Eddie Cochran, composer and virtuoso guitarist, co-penned the teen-age anthem “Summertime Blues,” which amplified the dissatisfaction and unrest that continue to trouble our youth even today.
