Rebellion Lite
It was the decade of Mickey Spillane novels, Elvis Presley, Nat King Cole, Leave it to Beaver, Executive Order 10450, Panty Raids in the colleges, girls in bikinis without the tattoo on the behind, and Dr. Spock.
The 1950s set the groundwork for the destruction of family and culture that came in the 1960s and later. Kevin Swanson traces social trends from the 1680s into the present day, showing the 1950's as the bend in the curve towards Gomorrah.
But what can we learn from those who preferred rebellion lite? Kevin Swanson draws important generational lessons from a decade that preferred their rebellion in small increments.
