Middle-Class Whites Made The 1960s Counterculture
The speaker is Theodore Roszak, author, historian, unique philosophical thinker. I loved interviewing him in 1989. He coined the phrase counterculture and had unique insights into the baby boomers without being one himself. If you found this of interest, please subscribe as I will present and future days many more comments from him. Thank you.

Where the 1960s "psychedelic" look came from
The hippie aesthetic owes a lot to Art Nouveau.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
When you picture hippies, you probably picture bell bottoms, long hair, and LSD. You might also think of a very specific graphic design and illustration style, seen on concert posters and album covers: curly, cloudy, barely legible lettering, trippy color combinations, and decorative meandering borders. This style was first conceived in San Francisco by a handful of designers in the late 1960s. Their job? Make posters for bands like The Byrds, the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Steve Miller Band, Jimi Hendrix … all of whom were just getting their start, competing for nightly stage time at venues like the Fillmore and the Avalon.

The 1960s in America: Crash Course US History #40
In which John Green teaches you about a time of relative tumult in the United States, the 1960s. America was changing rapidly in the 1960s, and rights movements were at the forefront of those changes. Civil Rights were dominant, but the 60s also saw growth in the Women's Movement, the LGBT Rights Movement, the Latino Rights Movement, and the American Indian Movement. Also, Americans began to pay a bit more attention to the environment. All this change happened against the backdrop of the Cold War and the Rise of Conservatism. It was just wild. John will teach you about sit-ins, Freedom Rides, The March on Washington, MLK, JFK, LBJ, and NOW. Man, that is a lot of initialisms. And one acronym.

The 1960s Counterculture And The Hippie Movement #hippie #counterculture #1960s
The 1960s counterculture and the hippie movement represented a seismic shift in American society, challenging conventional norms and advocating for peace, love, and social change. Emerging against the backdrop of social upheaval, political dissent, and cultural revolution, the counterculture of the 1960s reshaped the landscape of American identity and consciousness. In this video, we explore the origins, ideals, and legacy of the 1960s counterculture and the hippie movement, examining their lasting impact on society and popular culture.
The roots of the 1960s counterculture can be traced to a confluence of social, political, and cultural factors, including the civil rights movement, opposition to the Vietnam War, and disillusionment with traditional institutions. Influenced by Beat Generat...

Love Or Hate Hippies From The 1960s Here Is The Best Documentary To Understand Them
Hippies. The word seems to provoke people one way or the other. There are so many comments on my channel regarding people who "hate" hippies although mostly, what they are talking about, isn't about hippies at all. The hippies my team found when we were making our television series on the 1960s for primetime PBS (it aired on TV in 1991) were not political. They avoided politics. They also avoided for the most part cities.
They were part of the counterculture. They mostly lived in the countryside. They provoked a national interest in organic food etc. Smoked dope for sure. Did a lot of other strange things and probably for the most part had loose free sex relationships. But they weren't the ones who for example, spit at returning Vietnam soldiers at the various airports of the U...

In this video Heimler takes you through Unit 8 Topic 12 of the AP U.S. History curriculum which is set in period 8 (1945-1980).
In the 1960s the counterculture movement began in earnest among America's youth. Some young people got involved politically either to endorse or oppose the Vietnam War. Those who supported rallied to the college group Young Adults for Freedom and those who opposed it joined the more left leaning Students for a Democratic Society whose beliefs were published in the Port Huron Statement.
Additionally, antiwar protests reached a fever pitch in the Kent State Massacre in which several university students were killed by the National Guard.
But in general, youth culture simply rejected the prim and proper ways of the previous generation. The fine tuned voices of folks like Frank Sinatra were traded for the rough authenticity of singers like Bob Dylan. The hippie was the iconic representation of the counterculture during this time and the crowning achievement of this movement was the Woodstock Music Festival.

The hippie aesthetic owes a lot to Art Nouveau.
Become a Video Lab member! http://bit.ly/video-lab
When you picture hippies, you probably picture bell bottoms, long hair, and LSD. You might also think of a very specific graphic design and illustration style, seen on concert posters and album covers: curly, cloudy, barely legible lettering, trippy color combinations, and decorative meandering borders. This style was first conceived in San Francisco by a handful of designers in the late 1960s. Their job? Make posters for bands like The Byrds, the Grateful Dead, Janis Joplin, Steve Miller Band, Jimi Hendrix … all of whom were just getting their start, competing for nightly stage time at venues like the Fillmore and the Avalon.
But these designers didn’t invent that now-iconic style. In fact, they were heavily influenced by an art movement that started in the late 1800s called Art Nouveau.

The 1960s counterculture and the hippie movement represented a seismic shift in American society, challenging conventional norms and advocating for peace, love, and social change. Emerging against the backdrop of social upheaval, political dissent, and cultural revolution, the counterculture of the 1960s reshaped the landscape of American identity and consciousness. In this video, we explore the origins, ideals, and legacy of the 1960s counterculture and the hippie movement, examining their lasting impact on society and popular culture.
The roots of the 1960s counterculture can be traced to a confluence of social, political, and cultural factors, including the civil rights movement, opposition to the Vietnam War, and disillusionment with traditional institutions. Influenced by Beat Generation writers like Jack Kerouac and Allen Ginsberg, the counterculture rejected mainstream values and embraced alternative lifestyles based on communal living, artistic expression, and spiritual exploration.
The hippie movement, characterized by its rejection of materialism, embrace of nonconformity, and celebration of peace and love, became the defining expression of the 1960s counterculture. Inspired by ideals of freedom, creativity, and social justice, hippies sought to create a more egalitarian and harmonious society, challenging prevailing notions of authority and consumer culture.
The 1960s counterculture found expression in various cultural forms, including music, literature, art, and fashion. The psychedelic rock music of bands like The Beatles, Jefferson Airplane, and Jimi Hendrix served as a sonic backdrop to the era, reflecting themes of liberation, experimentation, and spiritual awakening. Literature and art, influenced by Eastern mysticism, surrealism, and psychedelic experiences, explored themes of consciousness expansion and social critique.
Central to the hippie ethos was the idea of communal living and alternative lifestyles. Hippie communes, or intentional communities, emerged as experiments in collective living, sharing resources, and pursuing self-sufficiency. Rejecting conventional notions of success and status, hippies embraced simplicity, environmentalism, and a back-to-the-land ethos, seeking to live in harmony with nature and each other.
Despite its utopian ideals, the hippie movement faced criticism and challenges, including accusations of naivete, escapism, and impracticality. Critics questioned the effectiveness of countercultural activism and the sustainability of communal living arrangements, while authorities viewed hippie gatherings and protests with suspicion, often resorting to repression and surveillance.
The legacy of the 1960s counterculture and the hippie movement endures as a cultural touchstone and a symbol of resistance and rebellion. Its ideals of peace, love, and social justice continue to inspire movements for environmentalism, civil rights, gender equality, and LGBTQ+ rights. The counterculture's emphasis on individual freedom, creativity, and community has left an indelible imprint on American society and popular culture, shaping attitudes toward authority, consumerism, and the pursuit of happiness.

Hippies. The word seems to provoke people one way or the other. There are so many comments on my channel regarding people who "hate" hippies although mostly, what they are talking about, isn't about hippies at all. The hippies my team found when we were making our television series on the 1960s for primetime PBS (it aired on TV in 1991) were not political. They avoided politics. They also avoided for the most part cities.
They were part of the counterculture. They mostly lived in the countryside. They provoked a national interest in organic food etc. Smoked dope for sure. Did a lot of other strange things and probably for the most part had loose free sex relationships. But they weren't the ones who for example, spit at returning Vietnam soldiers at the various airports of the United States. A very small group of political radicals did that who were aggressive and sometimes violent. Hippies had philosophies which many just went along with but some created.
Aggressive behavior was disapproved of even if only spoken. Hippie clothing was unique. Fabrics were "natural". Art was very flowery some of the time. Travel through America and traveling the world to other hippie centers was a part of life. When the city got too hard, you went to the countryside. There were many hippie behaviors based on values and ethics and then repeated by people who wanted to be part of the community.
Was it a cult? Some of the time. Was it a movement? Some of the time. Was it just teenagers not wanting to grow up – having a good time – living off the land or off mommy and daddy's money? Some of the time.
I interviewed many hippies or as some of them call themselves "x hippies" for my television series and for other films that I have made and most like that they were part of that generation and that movement. Some became practicing born-again Christians.
Some became farmers. Some became stockbrokers and businessmen. Some teachers and social workers. To categorize their actions after the 60s as any one thing is incorrect (such as that they are all greedy business people today).
I am very proud of the TV series I made for PBS called Making Sense of the Sixties. I had the chance to spend a year examining my youth and how I became an active member of the 60s generation. If you are from that generation or a child of the 60s, I think you would find the entire series of value.
Here is a quote from Hesiod in the 8th Century BC “I see no hope for the future of our people if they are dependent on frivolous youth of today, for certainly all youth are reckless beyond words. When I was young, we were taught to be discreet and respectful of elders, but the present youth are exceedingly disrespectful and impatient of restraint"
