Games
Speaking of games, here's one that looks like it was created during the Cold War.  There are some games you can pay for (but please don't) like Us And Them.  There is also COD: Black Ops II, which has some kind of Cold War plot but I haven't played it.  

Cool Websites 
History.com has videos and more info.  There's also plans to build a Cold War Museum.  Finally, there's the BBC site. There also this site with sound clips that highlights African American contributions to popular music.
