Elvis - When Culture is Transformed

from Christ, Culture, and Cinema · host Jeffrey Skopak

In this episode we explore how Elvis Presley crossed cultural divides and embraced the black culture of 1950's and 60's Southern USA.  He embraced their music, dance, and expressive dress and style as he brought it to teenage white America.  Even when the cultural forces conspired against him, Elvis remained true to his craft and his conviction of equality.
