The decade that changed the world.
On CNN
A sweeping historical documentary that mines the 1960s for transformative social and political moments, balancing the era's idealism against its conflicts.

In collaboration with Tom Hanks, Gary Goetzman and Mark Herzog, CNN explores perhaps the most transformative decade of the modern era in a 10-part documentary series and brings new insights into how those events shaped today.
