flower power
Hippie era slogan
Flower power was a slogan and ethos of the 1960s counterculture movement, promoting peace, love, and nonviolent resistance—often symbolized by placing flowers in gun barrels or wearing them in one's hair.
The phrase evokes hippie idealism and opposition to the Vietnam War.
Now mostly nostalgic or ironic: My parents met at a flower power rally in San Francisco.
