hippie movement
Peace and love
The hippie movement was a countercultural phenomenon of the 1960s and early 1970s, centered on rejecting mainstream values in favor of peace, free love, communal living, and psychedelic exploration.
Hippies opposed the Vietnam War, embraced Eastern spirituality, and challenged conventional attitudes toward drugs, sexuality, and materialism.
The movement peaked with events like Woodstock and the Summer of Love in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district.
