The U.s. in The Fifties
33
What we think of as the U.S. in the fifties actually started in 1945. The guys were home from the war.Women had left the factories and were at home having babies. It was a peaceful time. Millions of home were being built to house all the new families. But it wouldn’t last long. The world was becoming rosy. Everywhere you looked was red. Behind the walls, under the rocks, even Hollywood wasn’t immune.
