CLAREMONT DISCOURSE LECTURE
How American Bandstand Created the
American Teenager
Thurs., Nov. 8, 4:15 PM • Founders Room
Matt Delmont, American Studies, Scripps College
From a small studio in 1950s Philadelphia,
American Bandstand became the first national
TV program directed at teenagers. The show brought rock and roll into American living rooms, shaped the way a generation danced and dressed, and became the defining image of teenage culture for millions of viewers. At the same time, however, American Bandstand’s racially discriminatory admissions policies prompted protests from civil rights advocates and sparked a decades-long controversy over how the show should be remembered. Professor Delmont’s lecture will draw from his recent book, The Nicest Kids in Town: American Bandstand, Rock ‘n’ Roll, and the Struggle for Civil Rights in 1950s Philadelphia (UC Press, 2012).
