Glastonbury Festival 2010
The Glastonbury Festival occupies a special place in the British imagination. 180,000 people descend on a field to re-engage with their hippy side for a weekend. We’ve collected a good range of tape which explores the American perspective on the festival including how Glasto was influenced by Woodstock. The World’s Alex Collins tells us more on today’s show.
At The World, we believe strongly that human-centered journalism is at the heart of an informed public and a strong democracy. We see democracy and journalism as two sides of the same coin. If you care about one, it is imperative to care about the other.
Every day, our nonprofit newsroom seeks to inform and empower listeners and hold the powerful accountable. Neither would be possible without the support of listeners like you. If you believe in our work, will you give today? We need your help now more than ever!
