New Documentary Shows Boston’s WBCN As The Mouthpiece For America’s Youth In The ’60s

Journalist and producer Bill Lichtenstein got his start at 14 as a phone volunteer at WBCN in Boston in 1970. Now the award-winning director has a new documentary about that very station called “WBCN and the American Revolution.”

The film looks at the history of the underground radio station in Boston during the 1960s and ’70s. Lichtenstein joined “City Lights” to talk about the revolution.

There will be a screening and discussion with him at the Jimmy Carter Library Thursday at 6:30 p.m.
