HIPPIE

A hippie, is someone associated with the counterculture of the mid-1960s to 1970s, originally a youth movement that began in the United States and spread to different countries around the world.

It is a group of people that want more "peace, love & happiness " in the world. They believe humans can all get along, while having different feelings about personal issues.

Hippies opposed political and social orthodoxy, choosing a gentle and nondoctrinaire ideology that favored peace, love, and personal freedom.

In the 1960s, New York City, young counterculture advocates were named hips because they were considered "in the know" or "cool", as opposed to being square, meaning conventional and old-fashioned.

Hippies criticized upper-class values, opposed nuclear weapons and the Vietnam War, embraced aspects of Eastern philosophy, championed sexual liberation, were often vegetarian and eco-friendly, promoted the use of marijuana which they believe expanded one's consciousness. They used alternative arts, street theatre, folk music, and psychedelic rock, as a part of their lifestyle and a way of expressing their feelings, their protests, and their vision of the world and life.

One expression of hippie independence from societal norms was found in their standard of dress and grooming, which made hippies instantly recognizable to one another, and served as a visual symbol of their respect for individual rights. Through their appearance, hippies declared their willingness to question authority, and distanced themselves from the "nerds" and "regular people".
